Created in 1970, David Hockney's *Illustrations for Six Fairytales from the Brothers Grimm* is a suite of delicate etchings that reimagines beloved childhood narratives through the artist's characteristically witty and refined graphic sensibility. Published by Petersburg Press in London, this rare signed and numbered edition (65/100) exemplifies Hockney's mastery of printmaking, with each loose etching bearing his pencil signature and annotations that underscore the intimate, handcrafted nature of the work. The series reflects Hockney's ability to distill complex storytelling into spare, evocative line work, bridging the whimsy of fairy tale tradition with a distinctly modern artistic vision.
