"Lowry had a fear of large items, therefore, he directed his life to the study of smaller things." I've citation-tagged this statement because it sounds vaguely apocryphal, and I haven't found another source for it. If you can find a source for this, please add it.

This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as stub, and the rating on other projects was brought up to Stub class. BetacommandBot 09:59, 10 November 2007 (UTC) reply
