Graham Sutherland exerted a significant influence on the young Vaughan; this may be detected in the twisted roots and entangled undergrowth of the present work. It is typical of the artist's small-scale but nevertheless concentrated drawings of this time.
During the war severe rationing restricted the availability of decent art materials and Vaughan frequently resorted to humble pen and ink to express his visions. His subtle exercising of these materials was influenced by Sutherland. He explained in 1944, that his work revealed to him, 'a way of obtaining greater variety and richness from the simple materials to whose use army conditions had confined me' (Keith Vaughan: Lefevre Catalogue, May 1944).
We are very grateful to Gerard Hastings for preparing the catalogue entries for lots 29 and 98-100.
