Sir Ian McKellen — A3 Fine Art Print by Gavin Evans, London 1996

Sir Ian McKellen, photographed in London, 1996 for Premiere magazine. This fine art photography print by Gavin Evans presents a black and white close-up studio portrait of McKellen — made five years before The Lord of the Rings (2001) and X-Men (2000) brought him to a new global audience. At the time of this sitting McKellen's reputation rested primarily on four decades of stage work, including landmark RSC performances and his 1988 coming out on BBC Radio 4, which established him as a prominent figure in LGBTQ+ public life. A3 open edition giclée print on 308 gsm satin matte cotton rag, acid and lignin-free. Supplied unframed. Embossed with Gavin Evans' open edition stamp. Available from ThePrintRoom.Berlin
