Howard Hodgkin produced this etching after a visit to David Hockney’s home in LA with Peter Blake in the summer of 1979. The visit was an inspirational experience for Hodgkin and Blake, who both created works influenced by Hockney and their Californian summer. This work recreates the palm trees and famous kidney shaped pool at Hockney’s home; the plate was printed both in colour and monotone, entitled David’s Pool and David’s Pool at Night.
