David Hockney working on the set design for "The Rake's Progress" at England’s Glyndebourne Opera Festival Paris 1975.

In Paris, 1975, artist David Hockney works on his celebrated set design for the Glyndebourne Opera Festival production of "The Rake's Progress." Seen in profile with his characteristic shaggy blond hair and dark-rimmed glasses, he is intently focused on a large drawing with a repetitive, cross-hatched pattern. Wearing a light blue, textured sweater over a striped collared shirt, he leans forward at his desk, captured in a moment of quiet, studious concentration.
