A - B - C - D - E - F - G - H - I - J - K - L - M - N - O - P - Q - R - S - T - U - V - W

Please note that this is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of Irish artists - rather, it is a work in progress, with additions and updates frequently made. A good deal of the information has come from two particularly useful reference works:

  • Theo Snoddy, Dictionary of Irish Artists: 20th Century, Merlin Publishing, Dublin, 2002 (second, revised edition), and
  • Walter Strickland, A Dictionary of Irish Artists, Irish University Press, 1969 (2 volumes, facsimile reprint of the original 1913 edition).

Further information is available on many of the artists listed below, and Whyte's welcome any comments and/or corrections from readers. For a list of abbreviations used, please click here.
