  Cork Art History (1876-1900)
On March 24th 1876, a committee was appointed at a public meeting held in the Royal Cork Institution, to seek to establish Schools of Science, Art and Music in Cork.
The Privy Council was in a position to grant-aid local initiatives in art and science education, and, in addition, the amending of the Public Libraries Art in 1855 also enabled towns and cities to raise money from their own rate-payers for the support of schools of science, art, museums and public libraries.
Again the school has no art gallery, in which to exhibit the work of the pupils, or loan collection of pictures, and other works of art, and in which the nucleus of a permanent art collection might be gradually gathered.

 ART / 4 / 2DAY
Born on 07 June 1848 in Paris, Gauguin was one of the leading French painters of the Postimpressionist period, whose development of a conceptual method of representation was an important development in the history of 20th-century art.
Gauguin had already started painting and sculpting in his spare time and first exhibited at the Salon in 1876 with a landscape.1 He was asked by Pissarro and Degas to participate in the fourth impressionist exhibition in 1879, where from then on he would exhibit regularly.
His art shows a close affinity with the work of Carlo Goldoni, a connection that was several times acknowledged by the great playwright himself.
