George Russell (Æ), poet and mystic, in an oil portrait by Sarah Purser.

A russet beard, a coat the colour of peat and a forearm laid flat on the table — Russell's eyes are tired and direct, and the paint around him is thinned to a green-brown haze. The poet, painter and editor George William Russell (1867–1935), who signed himself Æ, was the centre of Dublin's literary revival, and Purser painted him with the same unvarnished eye she brought to every sitter. The canvas measures about 68 × 51 cm. This work is in the collection of the National Gallery of Ireland.

About the Artist
