Overview
A study of the artist, who finds balance in his work likened to the taste of bitter-sweet fruit. The film shows many of Sutherland’s most important works, including his portraits of Somerset Maugham and Lord Beaverbrook, and presents scenes in Wales and the South of France in relation to his landscape paintings.
