Lot 59 - BEYOND THE BOG by Patrick Collins Lot 59 Patrick Collins BEYOND THE BOG
Estimate: €10,000 - €15,000
Patrick Collins HRHA, 1911-1994
BEYOND THE BOG
Oil on board, 47 1/2" x 35 1/2" (120.6 x 95.3cm), signed; inscribed verso.

Provenance: Tom Caldwell Galleries, Dublin (label verso); Ex Collection Vincent Ferguson.

Before moving to Paris in 1971, Collins worked in Connemara for nine months digging ditches and produced a series of Bog pictures such as Bog Country (1970, Coll. Arts Council of Ireland). The palette for the series, evident in the present work, largely consists of yellows and browns which creates an earthy atmosphere producing a strong element of light from within the composition.

  • Please note: You will require a deVeres account in order to bid. Please register via the website. Each lot will close numerically. If there is late bidding the time may be extended which could delay subsequent lots. The lots will start to close from 2.00pm on auction day, closing at 45 second intervals.
    PLEASE BID EARLY TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT.
     
    In order to allow rival bidders the opportunity to respond to a late bid the following extensions will apply:
    IF A BID IS RECEIVED WITHIN THE FINAL 45 SECONDS OF THE COUNTDOWN THE CLOCK WILL RESET TO 60 SECONDS. 

    At any point you can leave a maximum bid, representing the highest price you are prepared to pay for a particular lot. Bidding only advances when there is competition from a rival bidder. In that case the system bids on your behalf, only up to the maximum if required. All bids are relayed to you be email, along with notification if you have been outbid. 
     
    All maximum bids are confidential and not disclosed. The system will endeavor to purchase the lot for you for the least price. Bids are subject to buyer’s premium of 25% (incl vat), with no additional charges.

    In the event of a tied bid, the preference will be given to the bid submitted first. The second bidder will receive immediate notification of being outbid.
