Lithograph from three aluminium plates printed in yellow, orange and brown, with hand colouring in violet gouache - On Lexington hand-made paper - Hand signed, dated and numbered in pencil - Published by Petersburg Press, New York - Reference: Heenk 35 and 51 // Howard Hodgkin's Nick's Room (1977) is a lithograph characterized by bold color blocks and expressive brushstrokes. Created using three aluminum plates printed in yellow, orange, and brown, the piece is further enhanced with hand-applied violet gouache, giving it a unique, textured quality. The composition centers around a deep purple rectangular form encased in a rich orange border, with rough, almost tactile edges that create a sense of intimacy and enclosure. The interplay of warm tones and gestural strokes evokes a feeling of personal space, as though peering into a private room saturated with memory. Printed on Lexington hand-made paper, each print is hand-signed, dated, and numbered, exemplifying Hodgkin's commitment to blending painterly expression with printmaking precision.

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.
