His expression is much more engaged now, with a direct gaze and a slight smile, making this a more intimate portrait than the wider photographs taken at the same location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eKrist and Chad remain in the background, separated by the steps and railings, while the surrounding concrete and graffiti add plenty of texture. The East River Amphitheatre had been built in 1941 for public recreation and performances, and had once hosted free concerts and Shakespeare productions. By the time of this photograph, however, it had become a very different sort of landmark: a decaying urban structure that would later gain a second life as a backdrop for New York's underground music and hip-hop scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe amphitheatre was eventually restored in 2001, before being demolished in 2021. Looking at this photograph now, it's interesting to think that the structure behind Kurt no longer exists. The higher viewpoint brings his face much closer to the viewer, and his expression feels more open than in the other two frames. For me, it's the most direct portrait of the three.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e----------------------------------------------------------------\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eAll prints are produced on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Giclée paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eFrames are solid wood from sustainable sources, manufactured to high standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eSizes available:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e30×45cm, 12×18”, fine art print only or framed fine art print\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e40×60cm, 17×23\", fine art print only or framed fine art print\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e59×84cm, 23×33\" fine art print only,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e84×119cm, 33×47\" fine art print only\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eAll sizes are open editions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eEach artwork comes with an exclusive Certificate of Authenticity (COA), containing signature and certificate number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eEach order also includes a personal letter from Steve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eSafe, tracked delivery, guaranteed worldwide, with sustainable packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Steve Double","offers":[{"title":"30×45cm, 12×18\" \/ Print only","offer_id":61426013274446,"sku":"V-PKQIRD7G","price":230.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"30×45cm, 12×18\" \/ Black Frame","offer_id":61426013307214,"sku":"V-SCOX8DSQ","price":270.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"40×60cm, 16×24\" \/ Print only","offer_id":61426013339982,"sku":"V-SOLZQN4E","price":330.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"40×60cm, 16×24\" \/ Black Frame","offer_id":61426013372750,"sku":"V-R2AJE41I","price":380.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (59×84cm, 23×33\") \/ Print only","offer_id":61426013405518,"sku":"V-B9MHLK5P","price":480.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84×119cm, 33×47\") \/ Print only","offer_id":61426013438286,"sku":"V-9UH43MZH","price":700.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1025\/7426\/0558\/files\/13787cb5-c43e-45c8-b172-995b25c52e42_26ce62be-5a71-491d-b812-3699468eeecd.webp?v=1793211029","url":"https:\/\/double-whammy.com\/products\/products-2026-10-28-18-08-21-nirvana-east-river-amphitheatre-portrait-3","provider":"Steve Double Photos","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
