Lucian Freud
Description
Born in 1922, Lucian Freud, the grandson of Sigmund Freud, is Great Britain's most well known painter. By reviewing over 70 of the artists' works, mostly portraits dating from 1944 to 2005, we appreciate the evolution of his career. We see how his brushwork evolved, getting progressively thicker and livelier. We witness the slow affirmation of the model's expression and ethics. The sets of this pilot episode were designed by Eric Rochant.
