"Head and Shoulders Portrait" is a 1910 oil painting by Irish artist Roderic O'Conor. The painting, which is now part of the York Art Gallery collection, depicts a man in a top hat, with a pronounced, almost caricatured, facial expression. The work is characterized by O'Conor's loose and expressive brushstrokes, giving the portrait a sense of immediacy and vitality. O'Conor, known for his expressive and often bold use of color, employed a palette of blues, greens, and browns to create a striking and memorable image of the sitter. This portrait showcases the artist's unique style, which blended elements of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, resulting in a work that is both captivating and revealing.
