Portrait Of An Artist (Pool With Two Figures) -David Bockney

The painting shows a pool on a luxurious estate in Los Angeles and the drama of a split couple. The swimming figure - the artist himself - tries to understand what ended this relationship which could not have been saved by any amount of money, career or hysterical effort. The emptiness in the eyes of his former partner is like a stare into the abyss, the forthcoming epilogue of the relationship. His red jacket is like the armor in which he has hidden himself mentally and emotionally.
