Exhibition 'Lucian Freud: Early Works' in Pallant House Gallery
Celebrating three new long-term loans to the Gallery of early works by Lucian Freud, this display showcases works which reveal Freud’s sharp and meticulous early technique. The three newly loaned works - ‘Interior Scene’ (1948), ‘Girl with Fig Leaf’ (1948) and ‘Portrait of a Girl’ (1950) - are accompanied by works from the Gallery’s permanent collection, including ‘Self-Portrait with Hyacinth in Pot’ (1947-48), ‘Portrait of John Craxton’ (c.1942) and ‘Unripe Tangerine’ (1946). The display also includes a selection of books featuring drawings and designs by Freud during the late forties and early fifties.
