  • "Most people don't look at a face too long; they tend to look away. But you do if you are painting a portrait"

     

    - David Hockney

    This portrait of Sir Tatton Sykes depicts him in a formal yet relaxed pose. Seated on a red-upholstered chair, Sykes is dressed in a layered outfit, with a white shirt and a dark vest. His hands rest casually on his lap, and his expression is calm and composed. The background is composed of a vibrant green with soft, textured strokes, while the floor features a warm, tiled pattern that complements the chair. The artist captures a sense of poise and elegance through the refined details of Sykes' attire and the overall harmonious composition.
