Description
In this allegorical work, the sculptor John Hogan took to depict the Irish king Brian Boru (c. 91-1014) as a child, receiving guidance and motherly chiding from Hivernia, the female representation of Ireland. The name Hibernia was taken from Greek geographical accounts.
An Irish born sculptor, John Hogan spent much of his professional career in Rome under the guidance of the Danish master Bertel Thorvaldsen. Thorvaldsen said that Hogan was the best sculptor he had worked with.
