    David Hockney Ten Palm Trees in the Mist (M.C.A.T 122)

    Ten Palm Trees in the Mist is a lithograph from The Weather Series by David Hockney, a portfolio exploring atmospheric conditions through bold and experimental printmaking. Created in collaboration with Gemini G.E.L., the series reflects Hockney’s fascination with the visual language of weather and landscape. Focusing on the iconic palm tree imagery associated with Los Angeles, the print captures a familiar symbol of the California lifestyle and the wider cultural mythology of the American West. Through soft colour gradients and simplified forms, Hockney evokes the quiet atmosphere of a misty morning while transforming a recognisable landscape into a contemplative and poetic visual scene.

  • About David Hockney Ten Palm Trees in the Mist

    In Ten Palm Trees in the Mist, David Hockney depicts a row of palm trees emerging through a soft veil of atmospheric haze, capturing the subtle beauty of California’s landscape. The composition reflects the artist’s interest in weather as a subject, even though he famously remarked that Los Angeles “doesn’t have any weather.” Working with the master printers at Gemini G.E.L., Hockney experimented with combining lithography and print techniques to achieve delicate tonal effects. Layers of cool blues and greens create a diffused background, suggesting mist and distance while enhancing the rhythmic repetition of the palm trees. These trees, widely recognised as symbols of California and the American dream, become both a cultural icon and a poetic landscape motif within Hockney’s refined composition.
