La Rose du Ciel, Cassis - Roderic O'Conor Art Print

Cassis, on the Côte d'Azur, 1913. By this point in his career Roderic O'Conor had moved south, trading the grey Atlantic light of Brittany for the sharper colour of the Mediterranean coast.

La Rose du Ciel, Cassis captures a sky turned rose at the close of day over the small port town, painted with the same expressive, unblended colour O'Conor had developed two decades earlier at Pont-Aven — only here, brighter, warmer, freer. It was exhibited that same year at the Salon d'Automne in Paris, and again in several London shows through the 1960s to 1990s, before the National Gallery of Ireland purchased it outright in 2000, where it remains today.

Roderic O'Conor (1860–1940) was born in County Roscommon and became one of the few Irish painters working at the centre of the Pont-Aven school. His work hangs in the National Gallery of Ireland, the Tate, and major collections worldwide.
