David Hockney | The Older Rapunzel (1969) | Brothers Grimm Etching

Add a touch of master-class draftsmanship to your collection with this original etching and aquatint by David Hockney. Created in 1969, The Older Rapunzel is a standout plate from Hockney’s celebrated Six Fairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm suite.

In this work, Hockney reimagines the classic folklore with his signature economy of line and masterful use of aquatint to create depth and texture. This particular piece captures the transition of the fairy tale's heroine with the dry wit and stark clarity that defined Hockney’s early career in London.
