Illustrations for Fourteen Poems from C.P. Cavafy: The Beginning

David Hockney’s The Shop Window of a Tobacco Store, etching and aquatint, depicts a storefront in Alexandria with figures interacting.

Etching and Aquatint on Paper. Hand-signed // David Hockney’s The Shop Window of a Tobacco Store (1966) is an etching and aquatint from his evocative series Illustrations for Fourteen Poems from C.P. Cavafy. This limited edition print features a storefront scene set in Alexandria, with a tobacco shop prominently displayed. The minimalistic linework captures the interplay of figures standing on the street, including a child crouched near the shop window and a man in traditional attire walking nearby. Above the storefront, the bold signage His Master’s Voice and S. Audi & Frères situates the image in a particular time and place, evoking themes of everyday life and observation central to Cavafy’s poetry. Part of an edition of 500 and measuring 18.5 x 12.6 inches, this piece highlights Hockney’s ability to imbue ordinary moments with a sense of narrative depth.

What is late modernism?

Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
