Woldgate Tree Stump

David Hockney’s famous Totem Tree, photographed here in August 2012, was a 12ft stump at Woldgate, Bridlington. In October that year it was sprayed with red paint and shortly aftwards was hacked down – something Hockney described as a “mean-spirited gesture.” The tree stump has appeared in a number of Hockney’s paintings including Winter Timber from 2009 which was part of his record breaking Royal Academy exhibition, A Bigger Picture, which featured paintings from a number of sites around Bridlington.
