40 kids seems a large estimate to me (I can count only 2 legitimate and 11 not) but hey, the Sunday Telegraph must know what it's talking about. -- Someone else 02:24 Apr 9, 2003 (UTC)

I didn't realise he was so prolific. Out of interest - do you happen to know if this Kathleen Garman (aka Kathleen Epstein) is any relation to the sculptor Jacob Epstein? --Camembert

Yups, she's his daughter (born before her parents married, which is why she had the name Garman). -- Someone else 02:38 Apr 9, 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling

His name is spelt Lucien, not Lucian. I have edited the entry but couldn't find out how to change the main title. The wrong spelling is very persistent -- appearing in the first 4 entries on Google. - (unsigned)

• It's Lucian, not Lucien, according to the Larousse Biographical Dictionary. (It also gets 39,100 hits on Google compared to 5,140). What makes you think it's Lucien? - Nunh-huh 01:22, 21 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Well, I wish I knew........ It is Lucian. I shall just slink away. Ven

• No need to slink, we like being corrected! We just like it better when we're wrong!<G> - Nunh-huh 01:53, 21 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Help

I cannot find any early Freud ink pics, can anyone help? You see, I need one for a school art project. Do you know where I could find one on the web? me to

uh, you could try google image search [1]. Seems to be a few here [2] Cfitzart 03:42, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Kate Moss?

Nothing about the portrait he did of Kate Moss? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.66.74.106 (talk) 17:29, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lorna Cecilia Wishart

I have written a biography on Laurie Lee and he had an affair with LCW - after meeting her in Spain - which came to an end when she met Lucian Freud. Lorna was the aunt of Kitty Garman who became Freud's first wife.

From the Kathleen Garman page:

Kathleen Garman's first daughter, also named Kathleen Garman, called "Kitty", became the first wife of the painter Lucian Freud. Their marriage was short-lived but produced two daughters, Annie and Annabel. Incestuously, Freud had had a previous affair with Lorna Garman, Kitty's aunt.

[edit] Personal interviews and voice recordings as valid references

Hi everyone, I've began my own quest to talk to artists, and attend live discussions about art and artists. I was wondering if Wikipedia accepts citations from recorded interviews? If so, how does one present it as a reference? Thanks for your advice -- Marcuslim (talk) 12:45, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
