This print is based on “A Bigger Splash” (1967) by David Hockney, a vibrant, minimalist painting that captures the essence of California living. It depicts a tranquil swimming pool with a dramatic splash at its center, set against a backdrop of a modernist house and a clear blue sky. Hockney’s use of bright, flat colors and precise geometric composition emphasizes the contrast between stillness and movement. The unseen diver adds an element of mystery, while the painting’s clean lines and simplified forms reflect Hockney’s fascination with American landscapes and lifestyle. It is one of his most iconic works, embodying themes of leisure, modernity, and the fleeting nature of moments.
