About the Item

Keith Richards smoking, Black and White Portrait photgraphed by Mark Seliger. 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 black-and-white portrait of Keith Richards by Mark Seliger captures the essence of the Rolling Stones guitarist's legendary persona. The image shows Richards in a moment of casual intensity, smoking a cigarette, with tendrils of smoke curling in the air. His deeply lined face tells a story of decades lived at the forefront of rock 'n' roll, embodying both rebellion and resilience. Richards wears a textured leather jacket and a headband, adding a rugged edge to the composition. The subtle lighting accentuates the contours of his face and hand, creating a sense of depth and intimacy. Seliger's use of monochrome heightens the timelessness of the image, highlighting Richards' status as a cultural icon whose charisma transcends eras. The photograph exudes a cool, defiant energy that is synonymous with Richards' music and lifestyle. From the Olympus of the music industry to the Oscar portrait studio - Mark Seliger's oeuvre is a tribute to art and pop culture in modern America. Starting as a magazine photographer who went on to shoot over 100 Rolling Stone covers, Seliger is known for his meticulously planned portraits. Whether highly conceptual or intuitive, his photographs of David Bowie, Nirvana, or the Rolling Stones radiate an intellectual coolness. Seliger's portraits walk the fine line between hyper-reality and surrealism, revealing a sense of honesty that's unique in celebrity photography. His work stands out for combining technical precision with an almost painterly attention to composition and lighting.
