拍品专文

In 1946 Francis Bacon was based at Monte Carlo and suggested Sutherland and his wife should join him there. They first travelled to the South of France in 1947. Thereafter they returned for part of each Summer. Sutherland was inspired by the sumptious vegetation, the hot mediterranean colours and the fantastic rock formations as well as the vine pergolas and palm palisades which particularly captured his imagination.
