Lucian Freud's artistic legacy is deeply rooted in his portraiture. This comprehensive examination of Freud's portraits, originally published in English in 2012, spans seven decades of his artistic career, from the early 1940s to his passing in 2011. The book features an impressive collection of 130 paintings, drawings, and engravings sourced from both public and private collections.
In addition to the visual artwork, this study includes a series of previously unpublished interviews with Michael Auping, conducted between May 2009 and January 2011. These interviews provide invaluable insights into Freud's thoughts on the intricate relationship he establishes with his models, the challenges he encounters in painting nudes and self-portraits, and the artists who have influenced him throughout his career.
While Freud may have been reserved in his public persona, he fostered a close and intimate connection with his sitters behind the closed doors of his studio. His subjects encompassed a wide range of individuals, including members of his family, such as his mother Lucy, as well as notable artists like Frank Auerbach, Francis Bacon, and David Hockney. Through his portraits, Freud sought to capture the essence of his subjects, exploring their personalities, emotions, and inner worlds.
This comprehensive study not only offers a visual feast but also sheds light on the artistic process and the profound impact of Freud's portraiture on the world of art. It is a testament to his talent, dedication, and the enduring legacy he has left behind.
