Graham Sutherland first visited Pembrokeshire in 1934 and was profoundly influenced by the landscape he encountered there. When he returned in the last decade of his life, he rediscovered this inspiration and embarked on a fresh series of celebratory paintings. A love letter to the landscape, works such as Road at Porthclais with Setting Sun highlight the beauty of Pembrokeshire and commemorate the way Sutherland felt when visiting. He wrote that this late series of paintings expressed the “intellectual and emotional” essence of a place.
Works bequeathed by the artist to the first Graham Sutherland Gallery at Picton Castle, 1976
