24.75”W x 39.5”H Very good condition, Lithograph in colors on heavy smooth wove paper, printed in a limited, unnumbered edition, Unframed.
This exquisite large-format original vintage poster was produced on the occasion of a special exhibition, David Hockney Prints from Tyler Graphics 1984-1986, held at the Thorden Wetterling Galleries in Gothenburg, Sweden in the spring of 1986. The exhibition featured an extensive selection of David Hockney’s Moving Focus prints, a collection of pioneering color lithographs produced in collaboration with master printer Kenneth Tyler between 1984 and 1986. In this series, Hockney explores the construction of images and the various ways of "seeing," examining the relationship between reality and its artistic transformation. This body of work remains a significant and innovative part of his artistic oeuvre. The luscious, jewel-toned bouquet –Amaryllis in Vase– is a celebrated lithograph from this important series. In this work, Hockney reimagines the traditional still life motif through a pop modernist lens. The composition utilizes reverse perspective, placing the shorter end of the table in the foreground and the longer side in the background. The vivid red amaryllis flowers are set in a round, blue shell-like vase against an intricate pink and yellow diamond chequerboard wallpaper. The piece is a rich optical composition that immerses the viewer in luscious colors and a unique floral atmosphere. The poster is a premium-quality color lithograph, printed on fine, heavy smooth wove paper, and is highly coveted by collectors for its scarcity, large-format and exceptional quality.
