The mouth twist emphasises the strain that the figure was experiencing at this time of his career, and it is in the dark shadows,the craggy sunken distorting eye sockets, the valley like face lines that are gouged out
gorge like with graphite, as if hewn from a single piece of Hamstone rather than created from the nothingness of an empty canvas.

This portrait, along with "Badger", are equally as well known as belonging to the Great Artists Blue period, as to the subjects.; 2 August 2008 at 11:30

Luckily for the rest of Britons, it may not even be red.; 7 August 2008 at 01:18
