Portrait of Kathleen Behan by Sarah Purser

This portrait captures the dignified strength of Kathleen Behan, mother of the celebrated writer Brendan Behan, painted by one of Ireland's greatest portraitists. Created in the early 20th century, Sarah Purser's work hangs in the National Gallery of Ireland as a testament to her mastery of character and light. This is your chance to bring it home.

About the Artist

Sarah Henrietta Purser (1848–1943) was a Dublin-born painter who became one of Ireland's most sought-after portrait artists. She founded An Túr Gloine, an influential stained-glass studio that shaped Irish artistic culture. Purser had a gift for revealing the inner life of her subjects—their intelligence, resilience, and humanity shine through every brushstroke.
