Specialist note


'Through nature Sutherland always envisages some aspect of man, just as in his images of man, and especially his portraits, it has parallels with natural growth and deformation, with nature's ruses and the ravaging effects of the struggle for survival that Sutherland inevitably exposes.'
Douglas Cooper
