This rare and highly collectible original vintage poster was produced to accompany a special exhibition, David Hockney Prints 1954–1995, held at the Peter Gwyther Gallery in London in the fall of 1998. The image features Celia with Green Hat of 1985, a beloved portrait of textile and fashion designer Celia Birtwell—Hockney’s longtime friend and muse, and a central figure in his portrait work throughout his career. In this engaging composition, Birtwell’s warmth, keen intuition, and bubbly personality are vividly conveyed through the bold colorful palette and the intimate, extra close-cropped framing. Her brilliant green eyes look directly at the viewer, creating a sense of intimacy and quiet knowing. The poster is a premium-quality color lithograph, printed on fine, smooth paper, and is prized by collectors for its scarcity, exceptional quality and faithful reproduction of the original print.
