Description
Minutes of board meeting held on 12th March 1896 in which the following was discussed: Lord de Vesci appointed [served on NGI board 1896 to 1903] and Gerald Molloy reappointed to the board. List of pictures and Mezzotint's listed over three pages with prices. Including portraits from the Chalenor Smith Sale in London. A Father Cassidy of Merchants Quay requests the loan of the portrait of John Hogan in order that it might be copied and sent to Mr Hogan's daughter, 'a cloistered nun' of Loretto Abbey, Rathfarnham. This was denied as the loan of pictures to private individuals was 'against the rule and practice' of the Gallery. It was moved and passed that the Gallery should be open to the public on Public Holiday's and St Patrick's Day. This is the last entry of this volume. It is followed by a detailed alphabetical index of pictures.
