Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Sir Edwin Lutyens NPG 4481

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by Robert Lutyens

The posthumous portrait by his son, depicting Lutyens in the mid 1930s, was painted because the artist felt every other portrait made his father look 'over-serious'. 'He was in fact,' the artist told the National Portrait Gallery, 'the least solemn man that ever lived, and banished boredom more effectively than anyone I ever knew'.
