I just think I’ve got to get on with it. Sometimes I feel like what Picasso said. “Man is the only animal that puts himself between the shafts of a cart, the carthorse doesn’t, he has to be led.You would have to be totally without feeling for painting not to respond to that.

At the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, I eavesdropped on a meeting between two great British painters. Though separated by two centuries, the pair seemed a lot like old friends. As a student at the Royal College of Art, Frank Auerbach, now 83, would walk through “a secret tunnel” that joins the RCA with the museum to look for inspiration in the permanent collection which, he says, “was very much more like a lumber room back then than it is today”. Some of the images he turned most often to were the paintings of John Constable.
Like “most people”, he suggests, Auerbach got Turner first. After he came to England, and in the knowledge that his parents were lost for ever to the concentration camps, Auerbach was enrolled at a boarding school for refugees, in Kent. It was there, as a 12- or 13-year-old, that he remembers reading Arthur Mee’s The Children’s Encyclopaedia and seeing Turner’s The Fighting Temeraire. It was, looking back, the moment that made him want to be an artist, just the drama of it all: “In any case,” he says, “you would have to be totally without feeling for painting not to respond to that.”
