拍品专文

'The uncompromising breadth and statement which had informed the major works of the thirties, and which had not been so evident in the more generally linear works of the forties and early fifties, returned to his art ... The works of this period rely less upon the tension of Nicholson's line and the elegance of his composition and more upon his ability to concentrate experience in the discovery of form ... They convey the essence of landscape as the artist has experienced them and their mood as he recalled it'
(Norman Reid discussing Nicholson's work from the late 1950s, exhibition catalogue, Ben Nicholson, London, Tate Gallery, 1969, pp. 53-55).
