Collection: Richard Rothwell

One of Ireland's finest 19th-century portrait painters — and a Romantic of rare depth and psychological intensity.

Richard Rothwell (1800–1868) was born in Athlone and trained in Dublin and London before building a distinguished career capturing the intellectual and cultural figures of his era. His Self-Portrait in the National Gallery of Ireland is one of the great Irish Romantic paintings — intense, luminous, and deeply felt. A painter whose finest work belongs in any serious collection of Irish art.
