David Hockney’s 1965 painting "English Garden" is set to be auctioned at Sotheby’s London during its modern and contemporary evening sale on March 4. Estimated to fetch between £2.5 million and £3.5 million, the work is historically significant as the artist’s first foray into English landscape painting.
