This painting is called Mr. and Mrs. Clark and Percy and was painted by David Hockney in 1970-71 on a 7ft x 10ft canvas. This painting shows a glamorous couple at home in London. David painted it for Celia Birtwell and Ossie Clark as a wedding gift. Scatters objects and the mans slouched pose gives the painting a casual look. In real life the painting is life sized, which causes a huge challenge for the artist. David painted Ossies head twelve times before he was satisfied.
