Provenance

“Maud Gonne 1916” by Rod Coyne belongs to a series of sixteen 1916 portraits created to mark the Easter Rising Centenary. This depiction celebrates the female rebel legend, here in theater costume, echoing her strong connection to the arts.

This ethereal portrait draws from modern looking photos of the day but is drenched in antique blues and browns marking the passing of time. Gonne stares out of the picture full of poise and confidence. Rod Coyne’s painting is the perfect addition to any home or office for art collectors and history fans fans alike. It is signed on the front and carries a date and inscription by the artist on the reverse.
