<B>Seán Keating PRHA HRA HRSA (1889-1977)</B><BR>HOCHE OF KILLALA<BR>signed lower right; inscribed on reverse with title and number (123/74)<BR>charcoal and pastel on grey tinted paper<BR>51 by 42cm., 20 by 16.5in.<BR>Provenance:<BR>Alain Chawner of the Stable Gallery, Ardee; Whence purchased by the present owner circa 1970s (original receipt included with lot) Friend of Wolfe Tone, General Louis Lazare Hoche (1768-1797) was the French commander charged with sailing a fleet to Ireland in 1796 to aid a nationalist rebellion. He never landed due to inclement weather and died of suspected poisoning before he could attempt another invasion. Keating's title here is perhaps ironic, given that Hoche died before the landing at Killala, Co. Mayo, although the French naval vessel involved in the landing bore his name.
