Choose from one of two extraordinary Jean-Pierre Laffont photography prints, each capturing a pivotal moment in history. Both prints come professionally framed (maple wood, museum grade UV plexy), making them a stunning addition to any collection.

  1. "Hands in Prison" - 26 x 32"- Manhattan, New York City, NY (September 28, 1972)- This striking image offers a glimpse into the gritty reality of New York City's famous Tombs Prison. Captured from Center Street at Leonard Street, the photo shows hands gripping the bars of the prison, a powerful representation of the human experience within the cold stone walls. The Tombs, built in 1840 with granite from the old Bridewell Prison in City Hall, stands as a testament to New York's architectural history and its role in shaping the lives within its walls. A haunting moment frozen in time.
  2. "The Kiss" - 30 x40"- Watkins Glen, NY (July 28, 1973)- Step into the heart of rock 'n' roll history with this unforgettable shot taken at the 1973 Summer Jam at Watkins Glen. A couple shares a passionate kiss in the midst of a crowd of 600,000 fans who gathered for an epic music festival that saw The Allman Brothers Band, Grateful Dead, and The Band take the stage. Despite the chaos and traffic jams, the music filled the air for all to hear. This iconic image captures the spirit of love, unity, and the unparalleled energy of one of the largest crowds ever gathered for a live music event.

Choose your piece of history-both prints are sure to evoke deep emotions and conversations for years to come.
