Lucian Freud,
 the Grand old man of British art.
 A relentless focus on the human form, a brutal realism a psychological depth, a glimpse into the inner worlds of his sitters.

 Lucian Freud’s dedication to capture the essence of the human form without any idealization, is deeply rooted in his philosophy - to reveal moments of vulnerability, human imperfections and flaws. 

By mastering impasto, a technique where paint is applied thickly to evoke a palpable sense of flesh, 
Freud infused his pieces with a sculptural quality, bringing the figures in his compositions vividly to life.

"The sitter - absolutely at ease"
