Comment(s): Lowry’s figural compositions are generally the most highly sought after works of his oeuvre. Laurence Stephen Lowry RA was born in Stretford, Lancashire. Many of his paintings and drawings depict people in Pendlebury, where he lived and worked for over 40 years, and Salford and its surrounding areas. On 26 June 2013 a major retrospective on his work opened at the Tate Britain in London, his first at the Tate. Mervyn Levy has observed “Few British painters have provided in their drawings so complete and revealing a conspectus of their aesthetic, intellectual, and intuitive objectives, as L.S. Lowry.” Image copyright © The Estate of L.S. Lowry/DACS. [30150-2-16000]
