Roderic O'Conor (17 October 1860 – 18 March 1940) was an Irish painter. Born in Milltown, Castleplunket, County Roscommon, Ireland,〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher = Milmo-Penny Fine Art )〕 O'Conor studied at Ampleforth College, then at Dublin and Antwerp before moving to Paris where he was influenced by the Impressionists. O'Conor attended the Metropolitan School and Royal Hibernian Academy early in his career.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher= Tate Institution )〕 Like his classmate, Richard Moynan, O'Conor travelled to Antwerp then Paris to gain further experience. In 1892 he went to Pont-Aven in Brittany where he worked closely with a group of artists around the Post-Impressionist Paul Gauguin, whom he befriended.〔 His method of painting with textured strokes of contrasting colours also owed much to Van Gogh. His nephew, Patrick O'Connor (1909–97), was also a painter as well as a sculptor. O'Conor died in Nueil-sur-Layon, France in March 1940.〔 In March 2011 a work by O'Conor sold for £337,250 (€383,993). ''Landscape, Cassis'', an oil-on-canvas, was painted by O'Conor in the south of France in 1913 and sold at Sotheby's for significantly higher than the estimate price. ==Works in collections== * Auckland Art Gallery * Ulster Museum, Belfast * Art Institute of Chicago * Hugh Lane Gallery of Modern Art, Dublin * National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin * Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh * Indianapolis Museum of Art * Hunt Museum, Limerick * Tate Britain, London * Museum of Modern Art, New York * Musée d’Orsay, Paris * Musée des Beaux-Arts de Pont-Aven * Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roderic O'Conor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
