Collectors spoiled for artistic choice

WITH art auctions in west Cork and Connemara, collectors are spoiled for choice this Bank Holiday Weekend.

The height of the holiday season, traditionally a quiet moment in the collector’s calendar, is bucking a long established trend with sales which allow Irish art lovers a more relaxed and leisurely appraisal of what is on offer than is sometimes possible.

Even if you are not a regular auction goer sales like these are a good place to dip your toe in the water and find something you like.
