The Poachers (c.1830s) – James Arthur O’Connor
Collector’s Edition & Master Edition Archival Print
Museum-quality reproduction of one of the finest Irish Romantic nocturnes of the 19th century.
Enter the moonlit stillness of rural Ireland with this masterfully reproduced edition of
The Poachers by James Arthur O’Connor (1792–1841), one of Ireland’s most important early landscape painters.
Illuminated by a silvered sky and drifting cloud, three figures pause in tense silence beneath the full moon —
a moment of quiet drama suspended between secrecy and exposure.
Painted in the 1830s and now held in the collection of the National Gallery of Ireland,
this atmospheric nocturne exemplifies O’Connor’s command of light, shadow, and emotional restraint.
Rolling terrain dissolves into darkness, the landscape breathes with solitude, and the composition evokes
the tension of 19th-century rural life.
Faithfully reproduced using museum-grade archival processes, this edition preserves the tonal depth
and subtle luminosity of the original painting.
