Holding the audience in the palm of his hand, Freddie Mercury pauses for a beat, chest bared. In a sleeveless white jumpsuit and shaggy layered hairstyle, Mercury is the archetypal glam rock showman. This dynamic photograph of a creative colossus was taken at the Public Auditorium in Cleveland, Ohio as part of the A Night at the Opera tour.
The print is signed and numbered by Janet Macoska, and accompanied by a certificate of authentication. The image has been reproduced as a C-type print, a process that uses silver photographic paper and wet processing to produce an exceptional quality print with seamless colour gradients and distinct three-dimensional depth.
Janet Macoska has been capturing rock legends on film since 1974. With her ability to capture the authentic energy and soul of her subject, Macoska has shaped the public memory of rock and roll for over five decades. Her work is held in numerous permanent collections, including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the National Portrait Gallery, and her photographs have adorned countless album covers, from David Bowie to the Kinks, Led Zeppelin to AC/DC.
