Release Notes:
Lambda Print
In 2008, Storm Thorgerson and SFAE celebrated Pink Floyd's 40th anniversary with an exhibition of signed Lambda digital C-Type photographic prints of album cover related images that he had created for the band over the previous 40 years.
These included works he produced both as a founding member of the design collective Hipgnosis, and as an independent designer with StormStudios.
The Lambda printing process involves using lasers to expose a photo-sensitive paper which is then wet-processed, similar to a tradtional dark room photographic print.
Storm's Lambda prints were produced as signed, open editions and were only briefly available for sale as they were intended only for the anniversary celebration. Relatively few of any single image were produced.
Serigraph Print
This image was published in the UK as a signed, limited edition serigraph in 2000.
Collector's Notes:
Lambda Print
Each color photograph was printed to order in the UK and then hand-signed by Storm Thorgerson. When he passed away, he did not leave an archive of these prints behind, only the handful that he had pre-printed and signed for exhibition remained available in our inventory.
Occasionally we may also have one available for resale from a private collector.
