Graham Sutherland (1903-1980) continues to be remembered, above all else, as the artist whose portrait of Sir Winston Churchill so offended the venerable figure that he had it destroyed. It was not that the portrait was wilfully "modern" in style, or even poorly executed. Rather, it was an uncompromisingly honest and forthright portrait of a man, who was after all, in his early 80s, frail and physically exhausted. Yet the portrait was also a sympathetic study that managed to convey the gravitas of the sitter, while at the same time revealing an endearing vulnerability. This reality however collided spectacularly with the image Churchill liked to project of himself; that of the man of action, the no-nonsense, indomitable wartime leader. Given the bold frankness and honesty of the picture, Churchill's reaction to it was perhaps inevitable. In retrospect, the whole "Churchill Portrait Controversy" proved a double-edged sword for Sutherland. On the one hand, it was testament to the potency of his portraiture. But on the other, the painting brought him a great deal of unwanted and unwarranted notoriety, especially in the popular press. http://http://english.ohmynews.com/
