Actress Kathleen Ryan (1922-1985) was born into a very prominent Irish
family; as the daughter of Irish Republican activists during the Irish War
of Independence, Ryan's seven siblings include Irish bohemian artist John Ryan,
Father Vincent Ryan, and Sister Ide of the Covent of The Sacred Heart, as well
her brother-in-laws, artist Patrick Swift and politician Sean Dunne. She made
her film debut in Odd Man Out (1947) and went on to appear
in films such as Captain Boycott (1947), Sin of Ester
Waters (1948), Give Us This Day (1949) and The Sound
of Fury (1950). Considered one of Ireland's great beauties of her
time, Ryan was subject of one of Louis le Brocquy's most striking portraits,
"Girl in White", which he painted in 1941. Creased throughout. Small
puncture in top margin. Corners rounded. Toned and slightly soiled. Otherwise,
fine condition.
