Frieze Masters Highlights
Listen to Lawrence Hendra talk about one of the highlights of our Frieze Masters display - a very significant work within Henri Gaudier-Brzeska’s oeuvre. This exceptionally rare oil on canvas portrays the artist’s own reflection alongside his first formal commission, a plaster of a Madonna, now in the collection of Kettle’s Yard. In fact, only three oil paintings on canvas appear to be recorded in Henri Gaudier-Brzeska's body of work, and the present work is one of only two recorded painted self-portraits by the artist.
