"I have never seen an ugly natural landscape"
- David Hockney
Measuring 93" x 70", Yosemite II, October 16th 2011 offers a majestic view of one of Yosemite's most iconic granite cliffs framed by the lush greenery of the forest. The towering rock face, rendered in pale yellows and creams, contrasts sharply with the vibrant greens of the trees that line the path leading towards it. The composition invites the viewer to walk down the path, deeper into the natural wonder, where the immense scale of the landscape becomes ever more apparent. Hockney's use of digital techniques brings a contemporary vibrancy to this timeless scene, capturing the grandeur and serenity of Yosemite with striking clarity. -
