Although Lowry once said "I only deal with poverty, always with gloom. You’ll never see a joyous picture of mine. I never do a jolly picture", his portfolio does include festive works such as "Good Friday, Daisy Nook" and his paintings of football matches. Painted in 1946, Good Friday, Daisy Nook shows a crowd at the annual Easter fair at Daisy Nook, near Manchester. The scene is filled with post-war optimism and leisure, with children holding balloons and bright, multicoloured tents dotting the background. When this cheerful painting was offered at Christie’s in London on 8 June 2007, it soared past its high estimate of £1.5 million and set a new world auction record for Lowry at the time of £3.8 million.
