In Feb: Is this love?

To mark Valentine's Day, we'll be looking at two iconic works from the collection that are, shall we say, on the grey side of a loving relationship. Lucien Freud's Hotel Bedroom and James Tissot's A Passing Storm each depict couples who  are equally torn in their affections. So what's going on in them? A lovers' quarrel? A serious argument? An indifferent ending? Let's look deeper and find out on an occasion that is all about love.
