Joseph O’Reilly painted portraits in oils during the late 1880s. One of his works here is Head and Shoulders of a Girl, a small oil that focuses on soft light on a young face. He exhibited in Dublin between 1884 and 1889, a decade when Irish artists were redefining genre portraiture under local patronage.
