Title A name given to the resource Two Figures Subject The topic of the resource Two Figures Description An account of the resource A painting, "Two Figures" depicts a figure standing with arms outstretched, and a second, seemingly smaller figure, so vague that it's unclear what it's doing. It's often thought to be a sketch for Giacometti's most famous sculpture, Pointing Man, but Giacometti said he was merely preoccupied with the subject of "the encounter of figures outdoors in a landscape".

Title A name given to the resource Interior Subject The topic of the resource Interior Description An account of the resource This is a painting of Giacometti's Parisian studio, with many of his sculptures on the floor. Giacometti is most known for his sculptures, but painting was also an important part of his career. His style of painting, composed of thin lines, is reminiscent of his sculpture style as well, making meaning out of simple shapes.

Title A name given to the resource Seated Man Subject The topic of the resource Seated Man Description An account of the resource A painting of his brother, this captures the intense thought contained in Giacometti's paintings. He felt that the process of painting a model was alienating, saying that "When he poses for me I don’t recognise him". This is reflected in the simple style and plain but descriptive name, both common features of Giacometti's style.

Title A name given to the resource Tall Figure II Subject The topic of the resource Tall Figure Description An account of the resource A sculpture of a figure, this work is elongated to the point of being essentially a straight line with a head, adding to the impression of height. This is typical of Giacometti's sculptural style, but it's simplicity only makes it more striking. Though it may seem small over an image, it is actually 5 and a half feet tall.

Title A name given to the resource Man Pointing Subject The topic of the resource Man Pointing Description An account of the resource Man Pointing is Giacometti's most famous work, and the most expensive sculpture ever sold at auction. The work was made in one night for an exhibition in New York, and was painted by hand by Giacometti. It is remarkable for it's size, at a towering 5 feet and 8 inches. The version in the Tate isn't the one that sold for 126 million, but it is still one of their most interesting works.
