Meaning & Analysis
The Arrival Of Spring In Woldgate East Yorkshire 30th May 2011 is an iPad drawing printed on paper, created by David Hockney in 2011. This artwork depicts a tree-lined path in East Yorkshire, capturing the late spring landscape. It is part of Hockney's series The Arrival Of Spring, which documents seasonal changes in the countryside near his hometown.
The composition features a dirt pathway framed by overhanging branches, with a horse-riding sign visible in the scene. Hockney created this work using an iPad, marking a significant shift from his earlier oil paintings and watercolours. This digital medium allowed for immediate on-site creation, akin to traditional plein air painting.
This series holds personal significance for Hockney, depicting the countryside near his childhood home in East Yorkshire. By focusing on this familiar landscape, he continues his exploration of memory, place, and the passage of time, themes central to his work since the 1960s.
