Tá breis agus 13,000 mír ann: breis agus 2,500 olaph- ictiúr, agus 10,000 píosa oibre i meáin éagsúla, lena n-áirítear uiscedhathanna, líníochtaí, priontaí agus dealbhóireacht. Is ón gceathrú céad déag go dtí an la inniu a thagann na píosaí oibre, agus tríd is tríd léirítear iontu forbairt na mórscoileanna péin- téireachta san Eoraip: Briotanach, Dúitseach, Pléimeannach, Francach, Gearmánach, Iodálach, Spáinneach agus an Ísiltír, comhlánaithe ag bailiúchán cuimsitheach d’Ealaín ó Éirinn. Ráiteas Misin Tá sé mar chuspóir ag Gailearaí Náisiúnta na hÉireann an bailúchán náisiúnta a thais- peáint, a chaomhnú, a bhainistiú, a léirmhíniú agus a fhorbairt; chun taitneamh agus tuiscint ar na hamharcealaíona a fheabhsú, agus chun saol cultúrtha, ealaíonta agus intleachtúil na nglúinte reatha agus na nglúinte sa todhchaí a fheabhsú freisin. NATIONAL GALLERY OF IRELAND The National Gallery of Ireland was founded by an Act of Parliament in 1854 and opened to the public in 1864. It houses some 13,000 items: over 2,500 oil paintings, and 10,000 works in different media including watercolours, drawings, prints and sculpture. The works range in date from the fourteenth century to the present day and broadly represent the development of the major European schools of painting: British, Dutch, Flemish, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Netherlands, complemented by a comprehensive collection of Irish art.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Gyongy Laky, dated October 21, 1999.
