Joan Jett, Sunset Marquis, LA, 1976

The grain on this print gives the whole scene a raw, lived-in energy that fits the December 1976 setting perfectly. I keep catching new details in her expression every time I walk past it — it's like the moment is still happening.

She looks so relaxed and defiant in that hotel doorway, exactly the raw energy you'd expect from 1976 Runaways. The print's contrast is perfect, making the shadows feel deep and the light on her face really pop. It's already a conversation starter on my wall.

The grain on this print gives it such an authentic 70s music-scene feel, and Joan’s expression feels completely unposed. It’s already the focal point of my living room wall.
