In Paris in 1975, artist David Hockney works on the set design for the Glyndebourne Opera Festival’s production of "The Rake's Progress." Seen in profile, Hockney, wearing a textured sweater and dark-rimmed glasses, intently studies small objects held in his hands. To his right, a powerful spotlight illuminates an artwork-in-progress on a large drawing board, casting a distinct shadow of his head and shoulders against the wall.
