David Hockney — Mountain, Tree, Palace and Seashore from Le Rossignol
David Hockney

Mountain, Tree, Palace and Seashore from Le Rossignol

A vibrant and stylized landscape rendered in Hockney's characteristically bold, flat planes of color, depicting a mountain, tree, palace, and seashore in a dreamlike compositional arrangement. Created as part of his celebrated stage design work for Stravinsky's opera *Le Rossignol*, the work reflects Hockney's deep engagement with theatrical scenery and his love of vivid, decorative color. The acrylic on paper medium lends the piece a fresh immediacy, balancing graphic simplicity with a rich, almost storybook-like sense of place.
