“Daughter and Father,” created by Lucian Freud in 2002, is an oil painting on canvas. The artwork belongs to the Expressionism movement and falls under the genre of portraiture.
The artwork features two subjects, presumably a father and his daughter, rendered in an intimate and contemplative manner. The use of thick, textured brushstrokes typifies Freud’s style, revealing the raw, nuanced emotion in the subjects’ faces. The expressions captured convey a sense of depth and introspection, emphasizing the close yet complex familial bond. The background is more subdued, allowing the focus to rest on the figures, highlighting their profound presence and interaction.
