Morocco had a profound impact on Hodgkin, leading him to revisit the palm tree motif in several of his prints. This subject was also shaped by his memories of the vivid travel posters he had seen in the Paris Metro during the Post-War era of the 1950s and 1960s, which captured a sense of glamour and spontaneity.
