Yesterday the National Portrait Gallery in London opened a new exhibition Wyndham Lewis: Portraits , which continues until 19 October. As you can see from his portrait of T.S.

For as long as I can remember, the first gallery of SFMOMA's permanent collection has featured Henri Matisse's 1916 portraits of Sarah and Michael Stein.
