Keith Vaughan (British, 1912-1977) The Kiss, 1943 studio stamp (lower right) pencil on paper 11cm x 14cm, unframed. Provenance: from the Keith Vaughan sketchbook, 1943; Professor John Ball; Private Collection. Keith Vaughan (1912-1977) - Lots 710 to 715 - From the Artist's Sketchbook, 1943 During the war, as a conscientious objector, Keith Vaughan served in the Pioneer Corps and during this period he was influenced by the romantic landscape tradition and particularly Graham Sutherland. Although there is a debt to be played to Sutherland in these compositions in terms of technique, by this point in his career Vaughan had created his own unique vision and artistic standpoint and these drawings record points in his life during the war. The Kiss is important for Vaughan, as it features both a man and a women entwined as its central focus point, an unusual motif as female figures were rare in his artistic oeuvre and it relates to the gouache sold in these rooms in December 2014. '... lovers, locked in each other, a single bipolar entity, oblivious to the outside, reaffirming each his existence in the other. And the threat of parting never far away' (Keith Vaughan to John Lehmann, undated letter from NCC Ward Barracks, Bulford, Wilts, quoted in Malcolm Yorke, Keith Vaughan: His Life and Work, Constable, London, 1990, p.97).
