What to look for
Expressionism: clashing, unnatural colour, distorted bodies and faces, rough, agitated brushwork and an anxious mood; Fauvism uses colour just as freely but is joyful rather than tense.
Lucian Michael Freud (8 December 1922 – 20 July 2011) was a British painter and draughtsman, specialising in figurative art, who is known as one of the foremost 20th-century English portraitists. Wikipedia
