A small still life that holds an entire painter's revolution.
Apples and Pear (1893) — Roderic O'Conor
Roderic O'Conor painted this still life in 1893, early in his years at Pont-Aven, the Breton artists' colony where he had settled the previous year. Two apples and a pear on a table become a study in saturated reds, greens and golds, laid down in the thick, confident strokes he developed after encountering Van Gogh's work through the dealer Theo van Gogh in Paris. Small in scale, large in ambition.
About the Artist
Roderic O'Conor (1860–1940) was born in Roscommon and became one of the few Irish painters fully embedded in the Post-Impressionist movement. He spent most of his career in France, and his work hangs in the National Gallery of Ireland.
