DescriptionIn Bertraghboy Bay, Galway Ireland depicts a rugged coastal scene on a grey day. Bertraghboy Bay, also known as Birterbury Bay, is an inlet near Carna, Connemara in County Galway. The west of Ireland landscape was a repeated subject for Armstrong. He and his friends Gerard Dillon and George Campbell would take painting trips to the west, often staying in Roundstone, County Galway.ProvenancePresented, Ulster Bank Ireland DAC, 2022
