David Hockney's "Rain" is a vibrant lithograph from his "Weather" series, created in 1973. It's known for its use of blue and is often considered one of the most famous works from the series. The artwork depicts puddles formed by concentric circles or ripples, filled with slanting rain.
David Hockney has long been fascinated with Japanese art and culture, and nowhere is this more evident than in his 1973 suite, The Weather Series. Hockney was also particularly taken by the woodblock printing tradition and many of the prints in this series reference the Ukiyo-e style, and particularly the work of Japanese masters Hokusai and Hiroshige.
