Soft-ground etching and aquatint with hand coloring - Monogrammed, dated and numbered in pencil // David's Pool at Night by Howard Hodgkin is an etching and aquatint print from 1979-1985, featuring soft, rounded shapes in monochromatic shades of gray and black. The composition combines flowing, organic forms with a dotted background, suggesting reflections or movement on a dark water surface. The soft-ground technique and hand coloring bring depth and texture to the image, creating a sense of quiet, contemplative atmosphere. Hodgkin’s abstract approach captures an intimate, almost dreamlike interpretation of a nighttime scene, evoking the tranquility and mystery of water under low light. The print is monogrammed, dated, and numbered in pencil, adding a personal touch to this limited edition of 100.

What is Colour Field Painting?
Colour Field Painting is an abstract style characterized by large areas of a single color or simple, solid colors. The term was first used in the 1950s to describe the work of three American Abstract Expressionist painters—Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still. Their work emphasized the emotional power of color and the creation of vast, meditative spaces through expansive color fields.
