Jeremiah Hoad (1924–1999) — The Harvested Field, triptych

A panoramic Irish landscape by Jeremiah Hoad, painted across three panels set into a single stepped frame of limed oak, the taller centre panel rising above its two wings like an altarpiece. Beneath a heavy, rolling sky, the view runs from heather and bog in the foreground to a white cottage caught in a band of sunlight, then on to dark mountains and a silvered stretch of water to the right. Hoad, reclusive and spiritual, rarely worked at this scale, and the format gives the picture the gravity of a devotional object.
Oil, triptych, in the original stepped limed frame.
