This particular print, measuring an impressive 75x100 cm (approximately 30x40 inches), is designed to make a significant visual impact, becoming a focal point in any room it graces. It's an opportunity to own a piece of modern British art history, rendered with exceptional fidelity to the original painting. Howard Hodgkin (1932-2017) was one of Britain's most celebrated contemporary painters, renowned for his intensely colored, abstract yet deeply personal works. His paintings, often executed with a rich, impasto technique, are not merely abstract patterns but what he described as "representational paintings of emotional situations." He sought to capture the feelings, memories, and sensations associated with a specific person, place, or event, rather than a literal depiction. His artistic process involved a prolonged engagement with his subjects, sometimes taking years to complete a single work, as he layered and built up paint to convey the complex interplay of human experience. "Here We Are in Croydon - 1979" is a quintessential example of Hodgkin's unique approach. The original painting, a powerful oil on wood, is translated into this stunning fine art poster with remarkable accuracy. At first glance, the viewer is enveloped by an explosion of color. Dominant hues of fiery reds and deep oranges swirl and clash with cool blues, greens, and flashes of vivid yellow and purple. Hodgkin's characteristic brushwork, even in a printed format, suggests a dynamic energy – thick, expressive strokes that convey a sense of motion and passion. The composition is built up of bold, interlocking forms that seem to push and pull against each other, creating an almost architectural structure despite its abstract nature. The title itself, "Here We Are in Croydon," is intriguing. Croydon is a large town in South London, often perceived as a bustling, somewhat stark urban landscape. However, Hodgkin's painting offers no literal streetscapes or recognizable landmarks. Instead, it invites the viewer to experience the *feeling* of being in Croydon, or perhaps the emotional encounter that occurred there. It's less about the physical place and more about the psychological space – the atmosphere, the personal interaction, the memory. The painting could evoke the warmth of an intimate gathering, the intensity of a disagreement, or the quiet contemplation of a shared moment, all filtered through Hodgkin's highly personal and emotional lens. The vibrant, almost clashing colors might suggest the energy of urban life, the internal turmoil of a personal reflection, or the vividness of a recalled event. The viewer is encouraged to project their own experiences and emotions onto the canvas, engaging in a dialogue with the artwork. This "Howard Hodgkin - Here We Are in Croydon - 1979" fine art poster perfectly captures the intricate details and intense coloration of the original. Produced using state-of-the-art giclee printing technology, each poster boasts exceptional clarity, color fidelity, and archival quality. This means the vibrant reds, deep blues, and subtle nuances of Hodgkin's palette are reproduced with stunning accuracy, maintaining the integrity and impact of the original artwork.
