A collection of David Hockney’s iPad drawings of the Yorkshire Wolds have been sold at auction for £6.2m.
The 17 prints are titled The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate and were started in 2011, six years after Hockney swapped Beverly Hills for Bridlington.
They went under the hammer earlier at Sotheby’s in London, selling for more than double the estimate for the collection.
Sotheby’s said it was the largest group of Hockney’s iPad drawings to come to market and described it as an “exceptionally rare opportunity” for buyers.
