Product Description:
Anne Madden is one of Ireland's foremost painters to have emerged since the 1950s. Of Irish and Anglo-Chilean origin, she spent her first years in Chile before coming to Ireland and England with her parents.

It features some of her most important paintings: Self Portrait, 1950; her early series of works inspired by the landscape of the Burren, such as Clare Land, 1967; and her series of Megaliths, Monoliths and Doorways, which are, in the late art critic Dorothy Walker's words, like 'giant forms emerging from the darkness of pre-history'.
