In 1981 Hockney visited China with the poet Stephen Spender, which inspired their collaborative 1982 book China Diary. Hockney also explored traditional Chinese landscape scrolls in his acclaimed 1988 documentary film A Day on the Grand Canal with the Emperor of China, where Hockney examines a 72-foot-long 17th-century Qing Dynasty scroll.
