He is an important contributor to the Pop art movement of the 1960s; he is considered one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century. Hockney admired the likes of Picasso, Dufy, Matisse, and Fragonard. He tried to utilize their techniques in his "impressionistic" photographs which later lead to paintings. Hockney developed the ability to take an ordinary scene and develop it through photographs and paint into something incredibly pleasing to view. 

Hockney has recreated his painting, the space shows how we see time.
