Tucker and Burra
During the 1930s, Edward Burra travelled the world portraying the people he met. Working largely in watercolour, he rejoiced in the bar scenes of Marseilles, Harlem and Toulon, making keen observations with wry humour and satire. His sharp social commentary inspired Tucker, who was also drawn to representing those on the fringe of society. Both artists elevate the ordinary, creating surreal and playful depictions that capture the drama of everyday life.

Tucker and Lowry
Eric Tucker’s work has been compared to that of L.S. Lowry, who he once met at a gallery in Manchester. Like Lowry, Tucker’s paintings of life in industrial areas of Northern England exude vitality. However, whilst Lowry’s work is often more removed, surveying the area from afar, Tucker’s paintings are more intimate. In Tucker's pub scenes, he explores the unique personalities of the men and women who jostle for space in the frame, animated in conversation as they smoke and drink.
