    Measuring 86.4 x 109.2 cm, "In Front of House Looking West" from David Hockney's "My Normandy" series is a charming depiction of a traditional half-timbered Normandy house. The scene is bathed in soft light, highlighting the texture of the building's wooden beams and red-tiled roof. The lush green landscape surrounding the house is meticulously detailed, with vibrant foliage that contrasts beautifully against the earthy tones of the structure. A modern car parked on the gravel path adds a contemporary touch to this otherwise timeless scene. Hockney's use of vivid colors and intricate line work captures the serene and idyllic atmosphere of rural Normandy, blending past and present with his unique artistic vision.
