Lucian Freud’s portraits of his mother are filled with her presence. Looking at this painting of her reading a book I feel as if she could look up at any moment.

Seen at the National Portrait Gallery’s exhibition of his work earlier today.

A great artist on paper: why Lucian Freud’s magical drawings are the key to his major works

The artist often swapped painting for etching as a way to rediscover his craft. Now a new exhibition shows these flashes of inspiration in all their intimate glory

Rocznica urodzin Luciana Freuda – niemiecko-brytyjskiego malarza, urodzonego 8 grudnia 1922 roku. Znany z intensywnych portretów i aktów, Freud był mistrzem psychologicznego realizmu. Jego płótna są gęste, fizyczne i bezlitosne – ale właśnie przez to autentyczne. (fot. Wikipedia) #LucianFreud #sztuka #malarstwo

Te juro que mi intención era hablarte de un pintor que, en los desnudos, revela el pulso interior porque busca #EmocionArte. Quizá esté en un error, pero creo que, de algún modo, #LucianFreud declara su deseo de formar parte de esta grandiosa genealogía del arte.
