It was the artist’s usual practice to produce numerous sketches and intermediary studies for a painting, but one might expect the monumental scale of that work (4255 x 3277 mm/167 1/2 x 129 inches) to have required even more than normal and this appears to have been the case. The Origins of the Land (Tate Gallery N06085) was commissioned from Sutherland for the ‘Land of Britain’ pavilion at the South Bank site of the Festival of Britain in 1951.
