About
Sir Thomas Alfred Jones (c.1823–1893) was an Irish portrait and genre painter and a President of the Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA). Active from the 1840s to the 1890s, he is known both for his society portraits and for his idealised depictions of rural Irish women, including the popular Molly Macree and Connemara Girls, rediscovered in 2016.
