Linda McCartney secured her first breakthrough as a photographer while working as an editorial assistant at Town & Country magazine. She documented a Rolling Stones promotional event aboard the SS Sea Panther, and the magazine was so impressed with her candid and relaxed photographs of the band that they published her images in an editorial feature. This first magazine commission was followed by many more. While photographing at the Fillmore East in New York City, she captured many iconic musicians including B.B. King, The Who, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix. Linda continued to work prolifically as a photographer throughout her life, documenting family life, landscapes, interiors, and portraits of artists. Her work is held in major public collections, including the National Portrait Gallery in London. – Corners slightly bumped, light indentation in lower left, otherwise in very good condition.
