A large print, published as part of an edition of 100, portraying the town centre of Beuvron-en-Auge, a small town in Normandy where Hockney lived with his partner from 2018. Created alongside the release of Hockney’s 220 for 2020 book that followed David Hockney during lockdown, the print captures a bird's-eye view of the quaint town with its distinctive striped buildings. 
 
David Hockney (born 1937) is one of the most influential 20th century British artists. He has explored a diverse range of techniques over the years including painting, printmaking, drawing, set design, videography, photography and digital art. He was an innovative printmaker with technology early in his career which has gained recent traction again drawing on his iPhone and iPad. Hockney explores everything from still life and domestic scenes to portraits and landscapes, whilst also addressing themes in his own life such as sexuality. Hockney’s style is iconic and recognisable with its warm feeling and lively, colourful palette. In 2018, Hockney’s Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures) became the most expensive artwork by a living artist to be sold at auction when it sold in New York for $90 million. Hockney’s work is held in countless international collections and museums.
