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

In Paris, 1975, David Hockney works on the set design for the Glyndebourne Opera Festival’s production of "The Rake's Progress." Seen in profile with his signature short blonde hair and glasses, the artist leans over a drawing board, meticulously adding detail to an intricate, web-like illustration. Dressed in a patterned sweater over a striped shirt, he is surrounded by the tools of his trade—brushes, sketches, and other supplies—on a desk within a sunlit, modern living area.
