Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures)

by David Hockney

There’s distance in it, even though the figures are close. It feels like observing someone you can’t quite reach.

When did art last move you?

Capture it before it fades.

Art experiences are fleeting. Capture the artwork, write one sentence, and keep the moment in your art journal.

That simple habit is the idea behind artjournal.ing.

About This Artwork

This work gained massive traction after becoming one of the most expensive artworks ever sold by a living artist. Beyond its market value, it resonates because of its emotional ambiguity. The relationship between the two figures remains unclear, inviting projection. Its continued popularity reflects the intersection of art and market spectacle, where price amplifies visibility.
