Victor Waddington (1907 - 1981) was a British art dealer, active in Dublin and then London, an early advocate for the work of Jack Yeats and Henri Hayden.
He started the Victor Waddington Galleries at 8 South Anne Street, Dublin in 1927, having moved there from London.
Waddington is regarded as one of the main art dealers of the early years of the Irish Free State.
In 1943 he became sole dealer and business manager for Jack Yeats and was crucial for his career and reputation.
In 1966, his son Leslie Waddington established a new gallery at the former property[4] with the backing of Alex Bernstein, a member of the Granada media dynasty, having previously worked with Victor.
