Elliott Smith, New York City, 1998

I’ve been looking for a print that truly captures Elliott’s quiet intensity, and this one nails it—the contrast between his pale jacket and that cool blue wall feels almost cinematic. It arrived well-packaged and the paper has a nice, matte texture that suits the moody portrait.

The blue tones in this print match the mood of Elliott’s music perfectly, and the paper quality feels archival. It’s hanging in my hallway now and catches my eye every time I walk by.

The blue wall in the background really sets off the quiet mood of the print, and the paper quality feels substantial. I’ve got it framed in my living room and it’s a nice conversation starter. Only wish the image were a tad larger for the price.
