Aloysius O’Kelly (3 July 1853 in Dublin – 12 January 1936) was an Irish painter.
Aloysius was born to John and Bridget Kelly in Peterson’s Lane (now Lombard Street
East), Dublin 3 July 1853. He was the youngest of four boys and one girl. The Kelly
family along with Aloysius’ cousins, the Lawlors, made up a network of artists and
political activists in 19th-century Irish cultural history. His grandparents on his father’s
side were natives of County Roscommon and his father ran a blacksmith’s shop and
dray making business in Peterson’s Lane.[1] His uncle on his mother’s side was John
Lawlor, a successful sculptor, and his cousin, Michael Lawlor, was also a sculptor
employed in London. Aloysius’ brothers, Charles and Stephen, also became artists,
whereas the eldest brother, James J. O’Kelly, set forth on a successful political career.
O'Kelly's mother directed him towards a career in the arts.
O’Kelly lived in Concarneau, Connemara and eventually the United States, painting
rural scenes in the prior and city life in New York City.[5] In 1889, O’Kelly painted a
depiction of Huckleberry Finn for Mark Twain.[6]
