ONE NIGHT FROM 'ILLUSTRATIONS FOR FOURTEEN POEMS FROM C.P CAVAFY'
1967
Hockney, David
Cavafy's poem recalls an encounter in a run-down room above a cheap restaurant:
'as I write, after so many years have passed!,
in my solitary house, I am drunk again.'
Hockney can be seen working on this etching in the film 'Love's Presentation'
