Graham Sutherland works on curtains for Coventry Cathedral. Menton, date unknown

In his Menton studio, artist Graham Sutherland sits on a small stool, contemplating his design for the monumental tapestry destined for Coventry Cathedral. The beret-clad artist observes the vast, multi-panel artwork, which features two enormous bare feet at its center, with a small, stylized figure standing between them. A fierce, lion-like creature fills the panel to the left, while a frieze-like band below contains the image of a coiled, dragon-like serpent.
