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

In his Paris studio in 1975, David Hockney works on the set design for the Glyndebourne Opera Festival’s production of "The Rake's Progress." Seen in profile through a doorway, Hockney sits at a table in an adjoining room. The main studio is a high-ceilinged space filled with natural light from tall French windows. Mid-century modern furnishings, including a leather sofa and a glass coffee table, coexist with the materials of a creative process, with papers scattered about and canvases leaning against the furniture.
