DAVID HOCKNEY A Year in Normandie (Purple Tree), 2023, 2023

David Hockney’s *Purple Tree* captures the Normandy countryside at the height of its lush summer beauty. A magnificent violet-trunked tree dominates the panoramic composition, surrounded by rolling green fields, golden hay bales and a red-roofed farmhouse beneath a brilliant turquoise sky.

The image comes from Hockney’s monumental *A Year in Normandie*, a sweeping visual record of the changing seasons around his home in northern France. Created digitally, the project reflects his lifelong fascination with landscape and the passage of time, using unexpected color and hundreds of intricate marks to make the familiar countryside feel newly alive.

This authorized open-edition poster was produced by Salts Mill to celebrate its exhibition of *A Year in Normandie* from 2022 to 2024. Printed on substantial 250gsm matte art paper, its wide format and radiant palette make it a joyful statement piece and an inviting way to bring Hockney’s unmistakable vision of nature into an interior.
