About the Item

Sonny and Cher, taken in the pool in 1966 by Art Kane Photographed at Sonny and Cher’s Beverly Hills residence in 1966 for the McCall’s magazine photo essay ‘Teen Idols’, Art Kane strapped on scuba gear and weighted himself to stand on the bottom of their swimming pool equipped with an underwater camera as they dove in for him again and again, until that one click that captured a slice of perfection. Rock and Roll, celebrity, fashion, concept and humor all rolled into one frame. And pre-dating Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind' by 25 years. Pure Art Kane Art Kane fine art print details Limited edition, fine art prints of Art Kane photographs are created from Kane's original negatives and transparencies and have been scanned on a high performance Heidelberg drum scanner with a maximum optical resolution of 19,200 dpi.

Bob Tabor is a well-established, New York based, photographer best known for his exquisite large scaled portraits of subjects ranging from horses to seascapes. It is his unique approach and sensitive insight that allows Bob to not only capture the energy of his subjects but to also create a visceral, intimate experience for the viewer.
