Women artists and their men

Just watched a short extract of a film about Lucien Freud, fascinating:

Small Gestures in Bare Rooms was a film made by Tim Meara about the artist in his later years.   The artist's studio was reconstructed; it includes Celia Paul, one of Freud's models and lovers, who currently has an exhibition at the Pallant House Gallery, Chichester, until 27th January. This is of both her work, and the work of Gwen John, another female artist whose work was overshadowed by the famous male in her life: she was Augustus John's older sister.  The exhibition is called Painters in Parallel, and there is certainly something very similar about the styles of the two women (Gwen John's work is on the left above)with their muted colours and quiet scenes.
