I bought this a while ago, it was from a charity shop. I was walking past the shop, and it caught my eye. So i went in the shop and paid £4,00 for it, it was hanging in my office for a while. It was taken down for painting my office, on the back i found my surname. And also the name of a gallery in Dublin, I have phoned the gallery many times and got no answer. It would be good to find out more about it, maybe it was meant for me. With having the same surname on the back.

Is it a painting Dev or a photo.? Difficult to tell if it's a sketch, water colour, oil or print.
I can see why it caught your eye though.
