拍品專文

In August 1944 Sutherland and his wife went to Pembrokeshire, staying first with John Craxton and Lucien Freud at the Mariner's Arms in Haverfordwest, and then retreating to a cottage at Sandy Haven. This trip inspired a whole series of drawings and paintings based around a dried-out tree stump in a glowing, invented landscape. Within this series the artist explores the idea of giving the landscape forms a figurative significance, the landscape being a metaphor for the human, probably female, body.
