David Hockney’s Two Boys Aged 23 or 24, etching and aquatint, shows two young men lying in bed facing each other.

Etching from the 1966 portfolio Illustrations for Fourteen Poems from C.P. Cavafy, published by Editions Alecto. This impression is from Edition A, numbered 109/500 (numbering appears on the colophon). The print was originally bound in the book, with the binding edge still visible on the left. Hand-signed by David Hockney in black marker and stamped on the verso by the publisher. Printed on Crisbrook handmade paper, in excellent condition. // David Hockney’s Two Boys Aged 23 or 24 (1966) is an etching and aquatint from the artist’s poignant series Illustrations for Fourteen Poems from C.P. Cavafy. This intimate composition depicts two young men lying side by side in bed, their backs exposed, facing each other in quiet conversation or contemplation. The scene is framed by the simplicity of the bedroom setting, enhanced by the patterned blanket below them. Hockney’s delicate linework and soft textural details capture a tender moment of connection, inspired by the themes of love and companionship in Cavafy’s poetry. Measuring 18.5 x 12.6 inches and part of an edition of 500, this print exemplifies Hockney’s mastery in conveying emotional depth through minimalism.

What is Digital Art?

Digital art refers to artistic practices or works that utilize digital technology as an essential component of both the creation and presentation process. Since the 1970s, various terms like multimedia and computer art have been used to describe this practice. Digital art is a subset of the broader category known as new media art, which has brought significant changes to the art world. Technology has transformed traditional forms of painting, drawing, sound/music, and sculpture into new digital formats, expanding the possibilities of artistic expression.
