SOLD OUT - Rose Boyt - Naked Portrait - A Memoir of Lucian Freud

At the back of a cupboard not long after the death of her father, Rose Boyt came across a box containing hundreds of typed pages, immediately recognisable as her half-forgotten diary of 1989/1990. Naked Portrait is a searing memoir of her relationship with her renowned father, Lucian, and explores her experience sitting for him from childhood until after her marriage. It is a viscerally honest account of a complicated father/ daughter relationship, of its power imbalance and her adulation of him.
