Three Trees at Thixendale. David Hockney






Hockney approaches the archetype at 73.
This is all you need to know in life, "three trees on the low sky" (TS Eliot "Journey of the Magi"). Its everyones journey.
And a face in harmony, at rest.

Painters and poets work the same images,speak the same language.Hockneys landscape work in these,his later years,is what matters.The earlier work is fashion and style and ornament.Here,what is inside is also outside.There is no difference, no separation.Beautiful work.
