EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait of Michael Collins, painted by Hazel Lavery in 1922, captures the intensity and charisma of the Irish leader during a pivotal moment in his country's history. Collins, who served as Chief of the Irish Free State Provisional Government and Sinn Fein Minister of Finance, was a central figure in the negotiations for the Anglo-Irish Treaty that same year. The Laverys, who were well-known figures in London society, lent their palatial home at Cromwell Place in South Kensington to the Irish delegation during these negotiations, providing them with a crucial space for discussions. Hazel Lavery, an accomplished artist in her own right and the wife of the renowned painter Sir John Lavery, was able to observe Collins up close, capturing his likeness with remarkable skill and insight. The resulting portrait is a testament to the unique relationship between the Irish delegation and the Laverys during this historic period. With its rich detail and evocative brushstrokes, this portrait offers a glimpse into the complex world of Irish politics and diplomacy in the early 20th century.
