Patti Smith, NYC 1973

The grain and contrast on this print are gorgeous — it really feels like a 1973 New York street shot, not a glossy rehash. Hung it above my record player and it's the first thing guests ask about.

The print quality is decent and captures that raw 1973 look, but the colors came out a bit duller than I expected from the listing photos. It's a solid portrait if you're into classic music photography, though I probably would've sized up the frame differently.
