Provenance: Annely Juda Fine Art; Richard Gray Gallery. Artwork in excellent condition. All reasonable offers will be considered. About the Artist: David Hockney is one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century. Perhaps best known for his serial paintings of swimming pools, portraits of friends, and verdant landscapes, the artist’s oeuvre ranges from collaged photography and opera posters to Cubist-inspired abstractions and plein-air paintings of the English countryside. Often returning to a certain motif again and again, he probes the manifold ways one can see an image or a space. Hockney’s exploration of photography’s effect on painting and everyday life is evinced in his hallmark work A Bigger Splash (1967). “In art, new ways of seeing mean new ways of feeling; you can't divorce the two, as, we are now aware, you cannot have time without space and space without time,” he has explained. Born on July 9, 1937 in Bradford, United Kingdom, Hockney attended the Royal College of Art in London alongside R.B. Kitaj. At school, he studied under both Francis Bacon and Peter Blake, but also credits Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse for influencing his distinctive and varied style. In 1963, the artist traveled to Southern California for the first time and fell in love with the bright sunshine and easygoing lifestyle. Since then, he has alternated living and working between Yorkshire, United Kingdom, and Los Angeles, CA. In November 2018, his 1972 painting...

Title Vic Andrews Ostriches Kalahari Sunset African Wildlife Pastel Painting Key Details Artist: Vic Andrews, 1922–2013 Title: Ostriches in the Kalahari at Sunset Medium: Pastel, framed Picture Size: 21.75 x 32.5 inches, plus frame Provenance: Private collection, UK Condition: Good Signature / Inscriptions: Not stated Description A large African wildlife pastel by Vic Andrews, depicting ostriches moving across the Kalahari at sunset. The composition is beautifully spacious, with the birds silhouetted along the low horizon beneath a wide sky of soft gold, peach and pink cloud. The dry scrubland and isolated tree give the scene a strong sense of place, while the pastel medium allows for a particularly gentle handling of light and atmosphere. At 21.75 x 32.5 inches, plus frame, this is a generous landscape-format work that would sit well above a sofa, sideboard, console or bed. The warm sunset palette would bring softness and depth to a sitting room, study, hallway or bedroom, especially in interiors with natural textures, warm neutrals, leather, linen or darker wood. Although it is a wildlife subject, the restraint of the composition makes it feel calm and considered rather than overtly decorative. Vic Andrews was born in London and spent his adult life in South Africa, drawing many of his subjects from travels through Natal, the Western Cape...
