About the Item

All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. John Joseph "Jack" Nicholson is an American actor, screenwriter, director and producer. He is one of the best-known and most versatile actors of our time. He was nominated for an Oscar twelve times and won three of them, making him one of Hollywood's most successful actors. Albert Watson photographed the actor during deep winter in Aspen. He is standing on a balcony in the snow, leaning on the railing. In the background, trees on a snowy hill are visible. The actor is wearing a tweed jacket, a plaid scarf, mirrored sunglasses, and a hat. He is pulling up his shoulders with a surprised expression, letting the viewer know how cold it is. The image is simple yet lighthearted and fun, making for an easily recognizable and iconic portrait of the actor. From the iconic Hitchcock series to extravagant shoots for Iris van Herpen, the British star photographer is one of the founding fathers of fine art photography. Throughout the last four decades, Albert Watson has made a name for himself as one of the world’s most successful fashion and advertising photographers, creating over 100 Vogue covers. Mick Jagger, Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, or David Bowie – Watson has captured the Who’s Who. No matter the genre, landscape, portraiture, nudes, or fashion, Watson is always curious and ready to venture into new subject worlds and has remained just as an essential creative force to this day. Watson has had retrospective exhibitions at renowned museums and art institutions, such as the Kunsthaus Wien, Vienna, The Museum of Modern Art, Milan, The Photography Museum, Antwerp, and the NWR forum in Duesseldorf. His images are in the private collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the National Portrait Gallery in London.
