1847 Bryansford Drowned Moore Pool Tollymore


EDITORS COMMENTS
Tollymore Park, Bryansford - The Pool (1847): A Watercolour Narrative of Tragedy and Beauty This evocative watercolour painting, titled 'Tollymore Park, Bryansford - The Pool,' is an 1847 masterpiece by renowned Irish artist James Moore. The scene portrays the serene and picturesque Bryansford Pool, nestled within the lush, verdant landscape of Tollymore Park. However, the title of this work carries an undercurrent of sorrow, as it was the site where Dr. Hunter's daughter was tragically drowned. James Moore, born in 1819, was a prolific Irish artist who excelled in capturing the natural beauty of his surroundings. His use of vibrant colours and meticulous attention to detail bring the tranquil waters of the pool to life, while the surrounding trees and foliage create a sense of harmony and peace. The play of light on the water's surface adds depth and texture to the image, making it a visual feast for the eyes. The title of this work, however, serves as a poignant reminder of the tragic event that unfolded at this idyllic location. The story goes that Dr. Hunter's daughter, while out for a leisurely swim, unfortunately lost her life in the pool. The artist, in capturing the beauty of the scene, has also immortalised this tragic tale, adding a layer of melancholy to the otherwise serene image. This watercolour painting on paper, with its rich history and captivating imagery, is a testament to the power of art to evoke emotion and tell a story. It invites us to pause and reflect on the interplay of beauty and tragedy, and the enduring allure of nature.
