拍品专文

Lowry visited Abertillery on a number of occasions to paint and in order to visit Mrs Flook, a fortune teller, to whom he gave the present drawing. He admitted to being deeply impressed by Mrs Flook's knowledge of his life, although he never disclosed in detail what she had told him (see S. Rohde, L.S. Lowry A Biography, Salford, 1999, pp. 372-74).
