The Story Behind This Painting... The Iconic Úna Taffee on a Summer's evening with her pooches, watching the world go by on Shop Street, in Galway city. For those of you that don't know, Úna Taffee was a very colourful character, one of the great characters of Galway who would don dark clothes, pearls and trademark bright red lipstick. She was a natural beauty who was born into a wealthy merchant class family. For many years she ran a very lucrative business on Shop Street, Galway, which she often compared favourably to a neighbouring business, Brown Thomas (Moons). However, as she aged her life became increasingly eccentric, she counted her many stray dogs as family members who followed up and down the often packed streets, some snarling and barking so she would be heard before she was seen coming to the crowd walking up Shop Street. She loved and cared for the dogs and they were allowed into the shop often to the bemusement of the many tourists and customers. Mounted Giclée Print. Available Framed.
