Demanding and Reluctant Love

Demanding and Reluctant Love

Signed, dated and titled verso by the artist.

Illustrated in James Hyman's Derrick Greaves From Kitchen-Sink to Shangri-La page 137.

Greaves created this painting from an original drawing he made in 1954. In contrast to the fleshy heat of the 70's and 80's erotic subjects Demanding and Reluctant Love, is relatively restrained and is a beautiful example of what Greaves described as his development towards linear clarity. When it was shown at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1998 it attracted comparison with Matisse.
