About the Item

Black and White portrait of Snoop Doog in Side Profile, photographed by Albert Watson in 1999. 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. This striking portrait of Snoop Dogg by Albert Watson, taken in 1999, captures the rapper in a profile view that emphasizes his iconic features and distinctive style. The minimalist black-and-white composition brings focus to Snoop’s braided hair, which is meticulously styled and adorned with small accents, reflecting both his individuality and connection to cultural roots. The sharp contrast highlights the texture of his skin and hair, creating a sense of realism and intimacy. His calm, introspective expression gives the image a contemplative quality, contrasting with the vibrant persona often seen in his performances. The simplicity of the white background ensures that Snoop remains the central focus, his profile exuding both strength and elegance. Watson’s ability to strip away excess and focus on detail results in a timeless portrait that speaks to Snoop Dogg’s authenticity and presence as a cultural icon. Albert Watson is a renowned Scottish photographer, celebrated for his striking and iconic contributions to the world of photography. Born on February 25, 1942, in Edinburgh, Scotland, Watson has gained international recognition for his work in fashion, portrait, and fine art photography. Despite being blind in one eye since birth, his unique perspective and visual storytelling have made him one of the most influential photographers of his time. Watson's career took off in the early 1970s after he moved to the United States. His photographs have graced the covers of more than 100 issues of Vogue worldwide, and he has shot numerous campaigns for luxury brands like Chanel, Prada, and Revlon. Additionally, his striking celebrity portraits, including those of Steve Jobs, Alfred Hitchcock, and Kate Moss, have become iconic images in popular culture. In addition to his commercial success, Watson's fine art photography has been widely exhibited in galleries and museums around the world, and his work is part of prestigious collections, including at the National Portrait Gallery in London and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. He has also published several photography books, blending his commercial and artistic sensibilities.
