Created in 1980, this lithograph employs a meticulous arrangement of blue lines to depict the rippling surface of a swimming pool. The artwork's composition is both intricate and precise, capturing the essence of water's movement through a series of undulating lines that vary in thickness and density.

This piece is part of Hockney's broader investigation into the visual representation of water, which began in the 1960s with his California swimming pool paintings. The lithograph demonstrates Hockney's technical skill in printmaking, particularly his ability to create depth and movement using only monochromatic lines. The use of TGL handmade paper adds a tactile quality to the print, enhancing the visual texture of the water's surface.
