Jack Lupton, a London-based optometrist and glasses maker, has been immortalized in a portrait by renowned artist David Hockney. Lupton, who delivers new glasses to Hockney, was asked to sit for him after learning about the artist during his school days. The sessions, held in Hockneys London studio, were filled with French jazz and classical music, with Hockney insisting on silence to maintain focus. Lupton was impressed by Hockneys steady hand, despite the artists age.
