Explores different formal ways of representing the passage of time and at the same time the unavoidable but marvellous stillness of portraits.
'An utterly compelling rogues’ gallery of the famous, the infamous and the anonymous' - The Spectator
'Attractive and entertaining.. Hockney’s gifts (close observation and an elegantly expressive line) have always been evident in his portraits' - Sunday Times
'An elegant framework for an account of a life which is also a study and a celebration of that life’s work … virtually every page turned is another encounter with Hockney’s distinctively expressive sense of line and colour' - Times Literary Supplement
'A Thames & Hudson treat' - Vogue
