Early David Hockney artwork to be sold at auction

A previously unseen early artwork by David Hockney is being offered at auction through Tenants Auctioneers. The piece was purchased directly from Hockney's end-of-year student show by a buyer named Riley and has remained in the same family ever since. Francesca Young, a modern and contemporary art specialist at the auction house, described the consignment as a rare and exciting discovery.
