Painting, Confrontation: Three Graces (oil on canvas, 72" x 84", 2010, Private Collection) by Thomas Lawson.

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating Thomas Lawson’s later, Los Angeles period (late 1990s–2010s) during which he returned to work that explored more decorative potential in painting through juxtapositions of diverse techniques and cultural fragments particularly regarding the allegorical possibilities of the human figure, questions of desire and attraction, and the pictorial rhetoric of self-representation. Because the article is about an artist and his work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize a significant period of his work. Lawson’s work of this type and this painting in particular is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article, as a representative work of this phase. |
