The RHA has been established since 1823 to promote art in Ireland and was an offshoot of the British Royal Academy. Almost every artist - both amateur and professional - in Ireland tries to get into the Summer Exhibition, and this year, 1,400 artists submitted 2,600 entries which were eventually whittled down to 350 works to be shown to the Irish public over the summer.

We don't necessarily buy every year, but it's nice to have the option of first dibs. I do always bring a camera, but the lighting is pitched for mood and ambiance, and not with the amateur photographer in mind. Here is one where the both painting and subject appear to be present.
