This colourful portrait captures a summer day by a swimming pool, in David Hockney's signature style. The pool's bright blue tiles contrast beautifully with the warm, earthen tiles surrounding the pool and the lush tropical plants framing the scene.
The composition, inspired by the textures of Pieter de Hoogh and the vibrant colours of Vincent van Gogh, creates a dynamic and harmonious whole. De Hoogh's influences can be seen in the precise placement and perspective, creating a sense of depth and realism. Van Gogh's influence can be seen in the expressive colours and energy bursting from the scene.
The tropical plants at the edge of the pool add an exotic atmosphere to the serene blue water. The clean, almost graphic lines give the work a modern and fresh feel.
Similar well-known works include Hockney's 'A Bigger Splash', which focuses on water and summer atmosphere, and Van Gogh's 'The Garden of Daubigny', which captures the energy and colour of nature. This artwork is a celebration of summer joy, bringing together modernity and classic in a visually appealing whole.
