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

The artist Graham Sutherland stands in a contemplative pose, hand to his chin, before the monumental design for the curtains of Coventry Cathedral. In his Menton studio, he observes the massive, multi-panel mural, a bold, expressionistic work in black and white. The artwork features gigantic feet with a small nude figure between them, a coiled, dragon-like serpent, and a horned, bull-like animal. Near his feet are an easel and discarded materials, while a small sculpture of a bird sits on a high ledge above.
