As an art student in Bradford, Hockney created several works inspired by his home town. Derek Stafford, his teacher at the Bradford College of Art, describes his attitude at the time as one in which he looked at his environment and said (Christopher Simon Sykes, , Century, London, 2011, p. 50). This rare work depicts Hockney's local chippie and its proprietors, who were friends of the Hockney family. It wonderfully evokes this familiar and quintessentially British culinary institution.
