O'conor, a native of count roscommon, received his academic training at ampleforth, dublin, and antwerp. He arrived in paris in 1886 and began to develop a looser style of painting. In 1894, he worked along side paul gauguin at pont aven, brittany. He continued to work in a modernist style although he never entirely ambandoned external subject matters. This painting was at one time thought to depict a brittany subject, but is now thought to be a late work executed elsewhere. Date: early 20th century. Place of creation: Antwerp.
