By David Hockney

2001

Offset Lithograph

19.75 x 31.5 inches ( 50 x 80 cm )

Edition Size: Unknown

David Hockney's Beverly Hills Housewife places a woman in a long pink dress before the glass frontage of a modern house. Pale architectural lines, reflections and broad grey-green planes frame her still pose, while a striped reclining chair and garden plants punctuate the wide composition. The contrast between the solitary figure and the spacious setting lends the scene a poised, quietly theatrical atmosphere.
