NUDE
Estimate:
€1,000 - €1,500
Roderic O'Conor, 1860-1940
NUDE
Charcoal, 13" x 10" (33 x 25.4cm)
Provenance: Collection of Rene Honta O'Conor bequeathed to Mme. Henri Bellard; from whom acquired by Dr. Robelet, Brittany. Sold at Thierry-Lannon auction house, Brest, 13 May 2007, lot 80.
The will of Roderic O'Conor's wife, Renee Honta, assigned all the furniture to their former housekeeper, Mme. Henri Bellard. This included a chest full of letters, etchings and drawings. A large portion of the latter was sold to a local resident, Dr. Robelet.
Drawings of nudes constituted a vast majority of the Robelet Collection. These were executed in O'Conor's Montparnasse studio, 102 rue du Cherche-midi. The range of poses, angles and physical characteristics were drawn were purely for his own satisfaction, not for public viewing, hence why they were very rarely signed or dated.
