      Samuel Rowan Watson (1853-1923) - Wuy Yeh! (Paper Boys), Dublin

      Est: £8,000 - £12,000

      Oil on canvas Signed and dated 1918 lower left 97 x 68.5 cm. (38 1/4 x 27 in) Samuel Rowan Watson worked in Dublin, and was a regular exhibitor at the Royal Hibernian Academy of Arts between the years 1910 and 1923, where he showed just under 20 paintings, mainly local landscapes and scenes of everyday life in Dublin. The present painting is an unusual and rare depiction of the tradesman of Dublin. Like Francis Wheatley s studies of London life in the Cries of London , Watson has captured what would have otherwise been an ephemeral moment in the daily life of Dublin in the 1910s. The importance of the dispersal of national and international news in Ireland, and its impact on the upheavals in Irish-British relations on political, social and economic levels, cannot be over stated. The rising awareness of alternative international potential meant the success and failures, the products of Irish emigration, were reported to an expanding Irish demographic. Similarly, the importance of the newspaper as a tool of influence was to become apparent with the changing political and social conditions during the struggle for Irish independence. The Dublin street scene depicted in the present work is actually a view from the doorway of Watson s studio, which was located at 34 Sackville Street (now O Connell Street), and shows Miss J. Morris s millinery shop and the Rotunda Hospital in the background.
