Description

Based on drawings made at the pool of Ken Tyler's house in New York in 1978, Hockney embarked on an ambitious series of 11 Lithographs of Water, which were completed two years later as well as a book and accompanying print, Paper Pools, which documented the creation of the famous series of works. Accompanied by the hardback book Paper Pools, signed in ink by David Hockney, published by Thames & Hudson, 1980 as well as the original slipcase and folio with matching numbers. Presented as published, this work has never been framed.
