Specialist note

'Ken [Tyler] had a swimming pool in the garden and every day we would have lunch by the swimming pool, every lunch time I would have a swim. I kept looking at the swimming pool; and it’s a wonderful subject, water, the light on the water…every time you look at the surface, you look through it, you look under it…’ - David Hockney
