Elvis First Photo, 1954 Silver Heart

Please note, this artwork is only available unframed.

Elvis First Photo, 1954 Silver Heart is a limited-edition silkscreen print with a stencil spray paint layer by contemporary artist Pure Evil (aka Charles Uzzell). The piece depicts a photo of Elvis, in traditional halftone dots.

The original image appeared in a memorial issue newspaper published in Elvis' hometown of Memphis, Tennessee the week he died. Under Presley's left eye, the artist has added his signature tear drop, welling in the shape of a love-heart and spilling down the print in a heart-breaking tribute to The King.

Known for covering city streets with his iconic graffiti-tag bunnies, Pure Evil is a master of contemporary urban art. His limited-edition prints, featuring crying cultural icons from Marilyn Monroe to Sharon Tate to Andy Warhol, are instantly recognisable, gathering a cult following and a collectable status.

From a limited edition of 100, each print is hand signed and numbered by the artist.

Please note: Prints will vary slightly as each piece is a hand pulled screen print.
