An evocation of Jack B. Yeats by MARY MUNRO with Denys Hawthorne as Yeats Barry McGovern as Bowsie
The Irish painter Jack Butler Yeats - brother of the poet - is perhaps best known for his paintings of jockeys and horses, the boxing ring and the circus.
In this evocation of the artist and his work on canvas and in print, we hear something of the humour, the enthusiasms and the wild preoccupations of the man who believed that 'all fine pictures ... to be fine, must have some of the living ginger of life in them'.
