Hilly Landscape in Brittany

Roderic O'Conor was an Irish painter active in late 19th and early 20th century Europe, known for bold Post-Impressionist landscapes and figure studies executed in vivid colour and expressive brushwork. Based primarily in Brittany and the south of France, he worked in oils and pursued a chromatic intensity influenced by contemporary developments in French modernism. O'Conor's compositions combine structured spatial depth with a decorative surface energy characteristic of Symbolist painting.
