Hambling is one of those rare artists who is often recognised in the street. 1843mag found her in winning form on the court
aggi Hambling’s attacking shots are letting her down. “Oh, you fool!” she bellows as she sends a backhand smash into the net. “Move, Maggi, move!” she thunders as she fails to capitalise on a short ball. This isn’t, on paper, a classic match: Hambling is twice my age, half my height and has a dodgy knee. But her troubles don’t seem entirely physical.
Her portraits combine a raw sensuality with a tender sense of their subjects’ inner lives. Some of her most remarkable work shows close friends and family members on their deathbeds. These pictures led George Melly, a friend, jazz singer and writer , to call her Maggi “Coffin” Hambling, a nickname she seems rather fond of.
Hambling tries to stay focused on what happens on her side of the net: “I make a piece of work, and then it goes out into the world, and it’s got a life of its own. There’s nothing I can do about it.” But the fuss over the Wollstonecraft statue rankled. “What annoyed me, my darling, was that they only ever reproduced the tits and the fanny – the figure at the top – never the whole sculpture. But there you are, there you are.”ambling’s love of tennis is “in the blood”.
