Sir Elton John fans can get their hands on limited-edition signed prints this month.
Elton John: Home Run - Dodgers Stadium 1975 print
The 'Rocket Man' hitmaker has collaborated with photographer Terry O'Neill and renowned pop culture artist David Studwell on a piece of art commemorating his iconic Dodgers Stadium gig in 1975.
Elton - who is to retire from life performance after an upcoming three-year world tour - asked Terry to be the official photographer when he performed back-to-back shows at the venue, the first concerts to be staged there since The Beatles' performance almost a decade before.
And David was brought on board to create diamond-dusted artwork based on the legendary photograph of the star.
He said: "My work often harks back to classic bygone eras such as the sixties and the seventies and this image gave me the perfect excuse to revisit those classic times.
"Following a meeting with Terry and his representation we decided to embark on a collaboration. With Sir Elton John's retirement beckoning; it felt like the perfect time to launch the screen print."
For David, he wanted to add his "unique vision" to the image while retaining the "identity" of the original photo.
He explained: "My work harks back to times when the word 'celebrity' had meaning, unlike today when social media or television catapults anyone into the spotlight. When I bring these iconic images into the present I attempt to preserve a sense of those times; by adding splashes or retro-colour or diamond dust to encapsulate the glamour of those eras. With the Elton piece; it was important to strike a balance. I wanted to maintain the identity of Terry's original photograph whilst adding my own unique vision to the image."
