About the Item
Portrait of Wyndham Lewis
Etching, 1973

Note: Michael Ayrton was an English artist and writer, known as a painter, printmaker, sculptor, critic, broadcaster and novelist. His work is in several collections including the Tate, London; National Portrait Gallery, London; MOMA, NY; Fry Art Gallery, Essex.
Michael Ayrton became friends with the painter and author Percy Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957) in the last few years of Lewis's life. Ayrton illustrated several of Lewis's books, and was commissioned by his publishers to make this portrait, which he painted from life. Ayrton particularly admired Lewis as the founder of the avant garde art movement, Vorticism: the handkerchief in Lewis's breast pocket is arranged into the angular 'V' often used in Vorticist imagery.
"The Roaring Queen" was originally written in 1936, but cautiously unpublished due to fears of a libel suit (or several!), Lewis's satire is aimed at some very famous literary figures
