A View of the Killaries, from Leenane – Framed Fine Art Print by Bartholomew Colles Watkins
Bring the breathtaking beauty of Connemara into your home with this premium framed reproduction of A View of the Killaries, from Leenane by Irish landscape artist Bartholomew Colles Watkins (1833–1891). This artwork captures the stillness of Ireland’s only fjord—Killary Harbour—seen from the village of Leenane, framed by calm waters, rugged mountains and soft Atlantic light.
About the Artwork
Painted in the late 19th century, Watkins’ composition centres on Killary Fjord, an eight-mile ribbon of water dividing counties Galway and Mayo. The towering presence of Mweelrea Mountain, the highest peak in Connacht, rises in the distance, while small boats and local fishermen bring gentle life to the tranquil scene. Unlike painters who emphasised drama, Watkins chose serenity—capturing Ireland not as storm-torn, but peaceful, reflective and enduring.
