The Rolling Stones, Keith Richards, 1978

The texture of the archival paper really brings out the grit in Keith's expression from that 1978 shoot. I was surprised how true the blacks and shadows are compared to other black-and-white prints I own. It captures exactly that raw energy Lynn Goldsmith is known for.

The grain in this print gives it such a raw, late-70s rock vibe that perfectly matches Keith’s expression. It’s already framed and hanging in my living room, and the detail in his eyes is incredible.

The way Goldsmith captured Keith’s weathered hands and that intense stare makes the print feel alive. The black-and-white tones are perfectly balanced, not too harsh. It’s already the centerpiece of my music room.
