David Hockney’s 16 March 2021, Tulips in Cut Glass, from the Twenty Flowers series, brings the traditional still life into the digital age. Created on an iPad, the composition depicts a vibrant bouquet of purple and pink tulips arranged in a transparent glass vase, set against a richly patterned tablecloth. Hockney’s expressive marks, heightened colors and intimate observation celebrate the fleeting beauty of everyday life while demonstrating his enduring curiosity for new artistic technologies.
