GRAHAM SUTHERLAND, O.M. (1903-1980) TREE FORM pen and black ink 15 cm by 11 cm; 6 in by 4 1/2 in Provenance acquired directly from the artist by his friend the writer Giorgio Soavi This drawing forms part of a group of studies based on withered oak trees that Sutherland found by the estuary at Picton on his return there in the early 1970s.

They have the most extraordinary beautiful, varied and rich shapes which detach them from their proper connotation as trees. One does not think of them so much as trees, more as figures; they have the same urgency that certain movements of figures can have in action. The Listener, XCVIII, 1977, p.231
