拍品专文

This shows Lewis' continued admiration for Rembrandt. A very rare work from the artist's early career, it also bears resemblance to certain works by Spencer Gore of the same period. Lewis and Gore stayed in Madrid for some weeks in 1902, visiting the Prado and studying the works of Goya (see exhibition catalogue, Wyndham Lewis, 1882-1957, Madrid, Fundación Juan March, 2010, p. 99).
