Illustrations for Fourteen Poems from C.P. Cavafy: In Despair

David Hockney’s One Night, etching and aquatint, depicts two men standing closely in an intimate pose within a simple interior.

Etching from the 1966 portfolio Illustrations for Fourteen Poems from C.P. Cavafy, published by Editions Alecto, London. This impression is from Edition A, part of the edition of 500 copies originally issued as bound volumes. The individual prints were not numbered, with the edition number appearing only on the colophon page. This particular impression is exceptionally hand-signed by David Hockney, a rare feature for prints originating from the bound edition. Printed on Crisbrook handmade paper, with the publisher’s stamp on the verso. One Night is among the most emotionally resonant images of the Cavafy series — a poetic portrayal of intimacy, memory, and distance rendered with Hockney’s signature subtlety and restraint. // David Hockney’s One Night (1966) is an etching and aquatint from the artist’s celebrated series Illustrations for Fourteen Poems from C.P. Cavafy. This limited edition print portrays two male figures standing close together, their poses intimate and unguarded, within a sparse and private interior. The figures, minimally clad, are depicted with delicate linework that conveys both vulnerability and connection. A simple lightbulb hangs above them, and horizontal blinds in the background suggest an urban setting, creating a sense of quiet introspection. Measuring 18.5 x 12.6 inches and part of an edition of 500, this piece exemplifies Hockney’s ability to evoke profound emotion and narrative through his restrained yet poignant compositions.

What is new figuration?

Neo-Figurative Art is a collective term that refers to the revival of figurative art in America and Europe during the 1960s, following a period dominated by abstraction. Michel Ragon, a French art critic, argued that this resurgence of figuration occurred during a critical time of social and political upheaval in both regions.
