Graham Sutherland's mixed-media Study for St. Matthews Church Crucifixion 1946 offers valuable insights into the nature of his drawing process. This remarkable work, shaded in soft blues and lilacs offset the hard-edged blacks of the drawing, particularly the deep oval around Christ's torso and legs. The spontaneous drawing of the Crucifixion is compressed within the demarcating lines of a square or container, much smaller than the overall support, a gesture reminiscent of the paintings and drawings by Alberto Giacometti.
