David Hockney, one of Britain's most beloved and restlessly curious artists, died at eighty-eight, leaving behind not merely a body of work but a transformed way of seeing. For more than six decades, he asked what it truly means to look at the world — at colour, at light, at the ordinary — and his answer changed how generations understood their own eyes. Britain's major newspapers did not simply mark his passing; they paused, as if to take stock of what a single lifetime of attentive looking had quietly given to the world.
