About this work

Patti Smith photographed in close-up in 1976, photographed by Gijsbert Hanekroot.

Smith’s face occupies nearly the full vertical frame as she looks directly into the lens. The close crop removes almost all environmental detail, leaving the dark sweep of hair, pale skin, and open collar to structure the image. Hanekroot’s uncompromising proximity gives the portrait a plainspoken intensity, clearly separating it from the fuller-body photographs made in the same year.

Each work is offered as a limited-edition archival pigment print, hand-signed and stamped by Gijsbert Hanekroot, with a certificate of authenticity included.

Vintage prints from the original period may be available upon request. Please contact the gallery for further information.
