Jug with Flowers poster by David Hockney

NEW FOR 2025! 

This utterly beautiful poster features David Hockney's iPad painting 20th February 2021, Jug with Flowers.  We have produced it to celebrate our exhibition 20 Flowers For 2025 And Some Bigger Pictures which opened at Salts Mill on January 29th 2025 during Bradford's year as UK City of Culture.

Of creating the 20 Flowers Mr Hockney has said:

“I started these flowers in February 2021. I was just sitting at the table in our house and I caught sight of some flowers in a vase on the table. Being February the sun was low casting a deep shadow on the table.  I decided to draw it, the background was dark so I made a rich brown for it. After printing it I put it on the far wall facing the table. There it stayed for a few days. It looked very beautiful to me.

A few days later I started another from the same position with the same ceramic vase, this took longer to do. Then I realised if I put the flowers in a glass vase the sun would catch the water and painting glass would be a more interesting thing to do. So then I was off.”
