Additional Information

Exhibition art print of Lucian Freud’s Man with a Thistle (Self-Portrait), 1946.

In Man with a Thistle, Freud paints himself looking through a window at a thistle, which rests on a ledge at the bottom of the painting. His works during the 1940s played with spatial and psychological elements, inviting the viewer to think about the objects in the paintings and their relationships to one another.

The art print measures 40 x 30 cm, and is printed on responsibly sourced, FSC certified paper by our Sussex-based printmakers. It includes a white border and a credit line printed underneath the artwork image.

About the artist

Lucian Michael Freud (1922 – 2011) was a British painter and draftsman, and is considered one of the foremost 20th-century portraitists. Although his early work contained surrealist elements, he is best known for his figurative paintings more heavily influenced by realism and intense observation. Most of his models were friends and family members, and this relationship between artist and model, often unsettling or uncomfortable, is a central theme to his work. His reputation for demanding schedules for these models was well established, with one painting taking approximately 2,400 hours to complete and requiring the model to attend all but four evenings of that time.
