Two Jamaican Girls – Augustus John 1937

This painting is in The Walker Gallery,Liverpool, UK.
It seems to shout across the room “Come look at me!”

Wyndham Lewis describes the artist, Augustus John, as:

‘a great man of action into whose hands the fairies had placed a paintbrush instead of a sword’.

If you are in Liverpool a visit to The Walker Gallery is a ‘must do’ – do it!
