This Art Edition comes with the signed print Prince, Cleveland, 2004 printed on archival paper by Watson in his studio. After years in the commercial and critical doldrums, the late Prince was back with a smash tour and record Musicology. Watson photographed him for Rolling Stone magazine just before he went on stage in Cleveland. "He was one of those people who was explosive on stage, but in his personal life he was quite shy. But he was quite definite about what his look should be. I had built a little studio behind the stage and used a 4 x 5-inch camera," says Watson. It's a simple, unplugged composition of the iconic pop star, positioned right in the center of the frame, with perfect interplay between his polka dot shirt and the duotone of the image. This edition is sold out.
