Description:
David Hockney’s The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire in 2011 (twenty eleven) – 16 May is one of the most celebrated works in his monumental digital series chronicling the seasonal transformation of the Yorkshire landscape. Executed as a large-format inkjet print on four joined sheets, this edition captures the vitality and luminosity of spring as interpreted through Hockney’s iPad drawings — a groundbreaking union of technology and traditional landscape art.
The series was created in anticipation of Hockney’s landmark 2012 retrospective A Bigger Picture at the Royal Academy in London. Between 2006 and 2011, the artist meticulously observed and recorded the subtle changes of nature from his native region near Bridlington, transforming them into radiant digital compositions that celebrate renewal and perception. Each work from this limited edition of ten is hand-signed, dated, and numbered by the artist, standing as a testament to his mastery of color, form, and innovation.
