This etching was inspired by Gustave Flaubert’s \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eA Simple Heart\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, in which Flaubert writes about the imagined life of a servant girl. In this novella, Madame Aubain inherits a parrot, Loulou, from a friend. But, on finding the bird a nuisance, she gives him to Felicite to care for. It is this narrative that inspired Hockney’s etching. ​​Hockney has the ability to capture the subtleties of his subjects’ expressions. Hockney lends a distinctive energy to each sitter, capturing something innate to their characters, rendered even when his pencil captures them as they sleep.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHockney claimed he began etching whilst studying at the Royal College: “In actual fact, I started etching there as I hadn’t any money, I hadn’t any paint”. Drawing and printing were to form the basis of his future art. After 1962, Hockney no longer drew self-portraits, but drew those who surrounded him.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor collectors and admirers of Hockney’s landscape works, In Front Of House Looking West captures the artist’s distinctive interpretation of a familiar rural setting in a format designed for wall display.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/davidhockneyprint.com\/collections\/canvas-print\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDavid Hockney canvas print\u003c\/a\u003e and discover additional artworks featuring landscapes, architecture and the artist’s distinctive visual style in our collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnhanced texture and timeless beauty with our canvas print.
