Postponed from 18 March, Sotheby’s sale 44 Fitzwilliam Square: Works from the Estate of the Late Patrick Kelly, is now scheduled to take place in London on 10 November 2020.

"I knew Patrick and his collection for many years. 44 Fitzwilliam Square was a truly stunning setting to showcase the paintings, furniture, and objects which he collected from around the world over a number of decades. In holding a dedicated auction, we are able to celebrate Patrick’s vision and look forward to sharing it with collectors not only in Ireland but internationally. The sale offers a stunning array of Irish pictures from the 18th to 20th centuries, as well as fine Georgian and Regency furniture, silver and decorative arts. Central to the collection are five paintings by Jack B. Yeats, including The Showground Revisited, painted in 1950 (est. £150,000-250,000 / €177,000-295,000) and Young Men, painted in 1929 (est. £150,000-250,000 / €177,000-295,000), and an exceptional work by William Scott, entitled Deep Blues (est. £300,000-500,000 / €354,000-590,000)."
