Artist: SINE MACKINNON (1901-1996)

Title: 'AFTER THE STORM' (signed oil on canvas)

Description: Born in Newcastle, County Down, Northern Ireland, Sine MacKinnon studied at the Slade School in London under Henry Tonks from 1918–1924, winning many prizes in painting and drawing. She then moved to Paris, having two exhibitions there before returning to London. Her first British solo show was at the Goupil Gallery, London in 1928. A year later she held a joint exhibition with Stephen Bone at the Fine Art Society, London, where they both exhibited paintings of Connemara. Mackinnon also exhibited at the Royal Academy, New English Art Club, Redfern Gallery, Alex Reid and Lefevre, Arthur Tooth, and the Leicester Galleries, showing mainly landscapes, which occasionally showed the influence of surrealism.

She travelled extensively throughout Europe, painting in Ireland, Italy, Spain, Greece and Switzerland but for most of her life she resided in France. She is best known for her paintings of Paris and of Provence, one of which is held in the collection of the Tate Gallery.  She is also represented in other public collections in Britain and France.

The present painting measures 13 x 18 inches image size.  It is oil on canvas, signed and dated 1961, and has a label attached which gives the title as 'After the Storm'.  We think that almost certainly this was painted in Provence.  The painting is in good untouched condition.  The frame has some chipping and staining but is adequate...
