First up, I'm not discussing the politics.
Second up, this is the only verified(?) picture of Churchill by Sutherland. All other portraits were destroyed on Churchill's, Lady Churchill's orders.
When I say verified, how much can you trust the internet?
I do like it though whether it's official, by Sutherland or not. It's good.

Oh, that's very nice isn't it? It's so nice to know that differing opinions are so respected on this forum.....well if you like portraits with monkeys, here's a funny Babecap where, if you look closely, a monkey is about to bite her toe!:

Look at this cheeky chappy whose obviously ripped off my avatar.
Rembrandt I think his name is, he's certainly got some cojones copying my original avatar. Dutch, I think.
