Yeats and le Brocquy among highlights of private collection

Des O’Sullivan on the life’s collection of a man who set up the AIB Collection in 1979.

Fresh to market works by Jack B Yeats, Basil Blackshaw and Louis le Brocquy will highlight the de Vere’s sale at the Royal College of Physicians on Kildare St, Dublin, next Tuesday at 6pm.

The first half of this 160-lot sale is devoted to the collection of the late Michael Carroll of AIB, who bought many of his works from the Dawson Gallery and latterly, the Taylor Galleries.
