| Graham Sutherland (1903-1980) THORN BUSH crayon, charcoal, watercolour, ink and gouache 38 by 23cm.; 15 by 9in. Executed circa 1947. £30,000-50,000 |
Born in South London and trained as a printmaker at Goldsmith’s College of Art, Graham Sutherland was continually inspired by nature and the British landscape. Thorn bushes and trees were a motif that Sutherland employed since his role on the War Artists Advisory Committee, using the religious connotations and structure thorns to express the harsh reality of an industrialised age.
