Snow is a 1973 by David Hockney, depicting Snow, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
David Hockney made this print in 1973. It’s a simple image of snow falling on hills. Grey sky meets white ground in soft layers. The print comes from a series inspired by Japanese art. Hockney worked with a master printer in California on this piece. Three brown shapes look like houses, but could be anything. It’s held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The print depicts a snowy landscape featuring softened hilly peaks beneath a grey sky, with snow-covered branches extending into the scene from the right and three small brown shapes that may represent houses gradually disappearing under the snow, reflecting a distinctly Japanese aesthetic among the works in this series.
