Description
Watercolour painting of a streetscape in an.Irish village Hacketstown in County Carlow Ireland- A well known corner -Jordans - a typical pub front - part of the indigenous architecture which is now sadly demolished. . For many years in Ireland the church or chapel was the focus of community meetings and gatherings - a place in which many of the rituals marking transitions and important occasions such as weddings and funerals took place . For this reason it is a place of nostalgia and significance for those who have left home and travelled far and wide.across the globe.
The village is on the border of counties Carlow and Wicklow and serves as a focal point for surrounding townslands.
The town nestles at the base of Eagle Hill. - "The Hill " as it is known locally is beloved by most people who grew up there.
This original painting was commissioned as a gift for an Irish lady who now lives in the USA but grew up in Hacketstown.
