Farrell started painting the Pressé series in the 1960s, inspired by the lemon
press for making the French drink, ‘citron pressé.’ Irish politics, and the Troubles
in Northern Ireland, affected Farrell and his work became politically engaged
from the late 1960s, when he started painting a series entitled Pressé Politique.
