  • Paintings

Portrait of Winston Churchill was a 1954 full-length painting by English artist Graham Sutherland depicting British prime minister Sir Winston Churchill. Commissioned with donations from members of the House of Commons and House of Lords, it was presented to Churchill at Westminster Hall on his 80th birthday. Churchill disliked the portrayal, and the work was later burned after being taken from his home at Chartwell.
