A large-format poster produced in silkscreen; a smaller offset version was also produced measuring 96.5 x 43.2 cm. The design was for Le Rossignol with music composed by Igor Stravinsky and stage set designed by Hockney. Vera Russell (née Lindsay)was a British Shakespearean actress appearing on the stage and in television productions in the 1930s and 1940s. She was married from 1956 to 1971 to the art critic John Russell. Together, they were a noted couple in the British art scene.
We also have for sale in the gallery another Hockney print, Homage to Michelangelo, for which Vera Russell was the model.
