Graphic Portraits — Four Faces, Reduced to Line

Four portraits of people who shaped the century, each rebuilt as stark graphic art: Frida Kahlo's steady gaze, Mikhail Gorbachev's geometric likeness, Marilyn Monroe's Seven Year Itch pose reduced to pure black-and-white silhouette, and Muhammad Ali standing over a fallen Sonny Liston in the most reproduced knockout photo in boxing. Same restrained palette as the rest of the shop — these just trade engraving linework for high-contrast graphic portraiture.
