Unveiling of John Rainey's commission work for RCSI, Dublin

RCSI has today unveiled new sculptural portraits to celebrate two pioneering women in the field of nursing and midwifery: Florence Nightingale and Elizabeth O’Farrell.

 

Created by Northern Ireland sculptor John Rainey, the two artworks were commissioned by RCSI’s Faculty of Nursing & Midwifery, in partnership with the School of Nursing & Midwifery, to mark the 40th Anniversary of the Faculty’s Research and Education Conference.

 

The Nursing & Midwifery commission was delivered in partnership with Business to Arts, a charitable organisation that develop strategic creative partnerships between the corporate and cultural sectors.
