Meaning & Analysis
Stanley In A Basket is a 1986 screenprint by David Hockney. This artwork depicts one of Hockney's dachshunds, Stanley, nestled in a basket. Created using an office colour copy machine, it is part of a limited edition of 50 prints. This piece fits within Hockney's broader exploration of personal and intimate subjects, particularly his affection for his pet dogs.
Stanley In A Basket showcases David Hockney's innovative use of technology, employing an office colour copy machine to create a homemade print. The image captures Stanley, Hockney's beloved dachshund, in a relaxed pose within a basket, surrounded by blue, hand-drawn lines that suggest the basket's texture and form. The print is notable for its tactile quality and the artist's ability to convey warmth and personality through minimalistic means. Hockney's technique here is a departure from traditional printmaking, reflecting his continuous experimentation and adaptation of new methods. This work is part of a series where Hockney explores the theme of companionship and affection, often featuring his pets Stanley and Boodgie.
