Thomas M. ★★★★★

The graininess of the black-and-white print is what sold me, it feels like a real snapshot from 1971 rather than a glossy reprint. Hung it above my record player and it fits the room perfectly.

Stella ★★★★☆

The Hotel Chelsea backdrop gives this a mood you don't get from her later studio shots. Print quality is solid, though mine arrived with a small crease in the bottom corner. Still, it looks great framed above my desk.
