Lucian Freud, who died at age 88 in July, will have a retrospective envisioned as a life in painting at London's National Portrait Gallery in 2012.  The exhibition will span his 70-year career and include this recently revealed final portrait, Portrait of the Hound, of his assistant David Dawson with his Whippet Eli.

    If I make it, I will let you know. If you ever can get to see the real thing, don’t hesitate, it is amazing. 🙂
