The image, taken from one of Hockney's most beloved subjects, captures the essence of his vibrant and dynamic style. David Hockney's pool images are indeed some of his most desired works, reflecting his time spent in Los Angeles. His pool paintings, such as "A Bigger Splash" and "Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures)," are iconic and have had a significant influence on contemporary art. These works are known for their vibrant colors, dynamic compositions, and the way they capture the interplay between light, water, and the California lifestyle. Hockney's fascination with swimming pools began shortly after his move to California in the 1960s. The abundance of pools in Los Angeles, which were considered a luxury in his native England, inspired him to explore this motif extensively. His pool paintings encapsulate the Californian dream of leisure and luxury, acting as metaphors for freedom and relaxation within the modern urban landscape​
