|
George Mounsey Atkinson was the eldest son of the marine painter from Co. Cork, George Mounsey Wheatly Atkinson, and brother of Richard Peterson, Robert and Sarah Atkinson, all of whom were also artists. However, of all George Mounsey Wheatley Atkinson's children, the most outstanding artist was his namesake. George Mounsey, who for may years was Art Examiner at South Kensington, was also according to Walter Strickland "an ardent student of Irish archaeology", contributing papers to the Journal of the Royal Society of Irish Antiquaries, and also editing the Cork architect Richard Rolt Brash's Ogham Inscribed Monuments of Gaedhil, published in London in 1879. George Mounsey died at his home in West Brompton, London, in 1908. |
