Bridgette Bardot with Cigar (Co-Signed) by Terry O'Neill, 1971
Located in London, GB
Brigitte Bardot with Cigar by Terry O'Neill, 1971 (Co-signed by Brigitte Bardot and Terry O'Neill. Terry O'Neill is undoubtedly one of the world's most renowned and collected photographers, with his work gracing the walls of national art galleries and private collections around the globe. With a career spanning over six decades, O'Neill has captured iconic images of presidents, pop stars, and cultural icons, seamlessly bridging the worlds of the frontline and fame. Among his extensive portfolio, one of his most celebrated pieces is the portrait of Brigitte Bardot with a cigar. This photograph, taken in the early 1970s, encapsulates Bardot's timeless beauty and O'Neill's signature style, characterized by candid yet captivating compositions. What sets this particular artwork apart is its co-signed edition. Having both Terry O'Neill and Brigitte Bardot's signatures on the photograph elevates its value and rarity to new heights. The co-signed version of this edition is a testament to the collaboration between two legends of their respective fields, making it a truly exceptional and highly coveted piece for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

The Who Pete Townshend 1979 - signed limited edition
Located in London, GB
Pete Townshend of the Who Madison Square Garden New York 1979 Large Oversize limited edition (ed size 15 only this size) and signed silver gelatin print. paper size 40x30" inches / 101 x 76 cm Certificate of authenticity supplied. About Michael Putland the photographer : Born in 1947, Michael grew up in Harrow where he took his first pictures at the age of nine before leaving school at sixteen to work as an assistant to various photographers including Time-Life photographer, Walter Curtain and the legendary motor racing photographer, Louis Klemantaski. In 1969 he set up his own studio and by 1971, he was the official photographer for the British music magazine Disc & Music Echo. His first assignment for them that year was to photograph Mick Jagger in London. From the editorial work for Disc and Music Echo, Sounds and later Smash Hits & Q magazine amongst others, to the 1973 tour with The Rolling Stones that led to a long-standing relationship working with the band, Michael has shot prodigiously including for major record labels including CBS, Warner, Elektra, Polydor, Columbia Records and EMI. Relocating to New York in 1977, it was here that Michael founded the photo agency, Retna. It has been said that Michael photographed everyone from Abba to Zappa … when looking at his archive this is actually true. Now living in East Sussex, recent 2016 exhibitions include “Off The Record” at The Lucy Bell Gallery in Hastings showing images both on and off stage including previously unseen contact sheets; whilst Ono Arte in Bologna, Italy is hosting a David Bowie show. Autumn 2014 saw Michael’s 50 year retrospective at the Getty Gallery in London: “A life in Music, 50 Years On The Road”. Snap Gallery in London’s Piccadilly Arcade regularly have a selection of Michael’s work on show. Michael continues to shoot the artists he most admires – likely to be jazz, classical and world musicians, who have always provided an alternative narrative to his rock music portfolio. “It has been a fantastic ride through an incredible period of music history, which combined my two great loves … music and photography. Little did I appreciate, when my Uncle Alan encouraged my photography back in the 1950s, that this would lead me to photographing nearly all of my heroes … and thrilled to be still finding new ones. A great never ending journey.” Michael Putland About The Who : Few rock & roll bands were riddled with as many contradictions as the Who. All four members had wildly different personalities, as their notorious live performances demonstrated: Keith Moon fell over his drum kit while Pete Townshend leaped into the air with his guitar, spinning his right hand in exaggerated windmills. Vocalist Roger Daltrey prowled the stage as bassist John...
