拍品专文

By the decade 1910-1920, O'Conor's art returned to more 'academic standards of representation, with carefully delineated and modelled forms painting in restrained colours ... He relinquished landscape paintings in favour of female figure subjects, still lifes and the occasional self-portrait. He expended the utmost care in the placing of figures, objects and backgrounds in order to achieve balanced and harmonious compositions' (see J. Benington, Roderic O'Conor, Dublin, 1992, pp. 123-124).
