However, Gertler grew increasingly jealous of Nevinson’s relationship with his unattainable love, Dora Carrington, and ultimately chose to bring their collaboration to an end.

In them, he declares his love, then rejects it, only to return to it again—unfolding in a fragmented, at times humorous yet deeply poignant expression of emotional turmoil.
