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

In his Menton studio, artist Graham Sutherland sits atop an A-frame ladder before the monumental cartoon for his tapestry for Coventry Cathedral. Looking toward the camera with a slight smile, he is surrounded by the vast, multi-panelled composition, a complex work in a modern, expressive style. To his left is a stylized female figure, while a prominent bull-like creature dominates the section to his right. In the foreground, brushes and other art supplies are visible on the floor, capturing a moment of artistic creation.
