THIS EXHIBITION IS NOW CLOSED
We were delighted to have run a small exhibition of paintings by renowned painter and architectural historian Peter Pearson here at Howth Castle over the last few months. The exhibition was titled 'Dublin Castles and Other Antiquities'. We had a wonderful launch party in August and the exhibition was opened by Professor Roger Stalley. It was a truly memorable evening. Thank you to all who visited.
Born in Dun Laoghaire, Co Dublin, Peter Pearson is a highly regarded painter, historian and advocate for the conservation of Ireland's architectural heritage. As a long standing member of the Dublin Civic Trust, the Irish Georgian Society and An Taisce, Peter has been instrumental in several successful campaigns to save historic buildings, notably Drimnagh Castle and Temple Bar. Peter has also published a number of books on his work including Peter Pearson's Decorative Dublin (2002) and Of Sea and Stone - Paintings 1974-2014 (2014).
This exhibition, titled 'Castles of Dublin and Other Antiquities', displays not only Peter's incredible talent for painting but also his deep passion for Ireland's built heritage.
