Before the swimming pools, Californian light and international acclaim, David Hockney was a young Bradford art student sitting for a sketch.

This drawing by Gerald French (1927–2001), who studied alongside Hockney at Bradford School of Art, feels particularly poignant following Hockney’s death earlier this year.

It captures a quiet moment before he became one of Britain’s most celebrated artists.

Part of the Dean Clough permanent art collection, it can be found on D Mill 2nd Floor.
