Biography: Roderic Montagu O'Connor (French-born Irish-American, 1907-2001), AKA Roderic Montagu, was a noted impressionist painter and muralist primarily known for his compositions of Roman architectural ruins, Venetian scenes, portraits, landscapes and still lifes. He was born October 29, 1907 in Clamart, France, a commune in the southwestern suburbs of Paris. He was the son of the well-known American-Irish sculptor Andrew O'Connor who had settled in Paris (c.1903) with his wife Jessie, and the couple had four sons to include; Hector, Owen, Roderick and Patrick who was also a noted artist & sculptor. Roderic first came to the United States in 1914 with his family and they settled in Paxton, MA. Over the course of his career, Roderic had lived and exhibited in London, Dublin, Paris, New York, and Florida, including the Societé des Artistes annual Salon exhibition, Paris 1938, as well as other Paris Salons throughout his lifetime, and also had many portraits exhibited at the Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA) in Dublin, Ireland. In addition, Roderic had exhibited paintings with his brother Patrick at Daniel Egan's Gallery in Dublin (1932), and they had also previously exhibited together in Jack Seligman's Gallery in Paris. Throughout his career, Roderic maintained studios in Paris, Rome, and London, and later resided with his wife Ruth in Palm Beach, FL since 1974. He died on March 6, 2001 at the age of 93, and his brother Patrick, who had lived near him in Palm Beach, also died there in 1997. Roderic typically would sign his paintings with only his first and middle names as 'Roderic Montagu'. Sometimes, auction houses have incorrectly categorized his work under the name, Robert Montagu. He signed his work as "R. Montagu."
