Framing

Dennis Stock: Venice Beach. We recommend book-mounting this print in a wide passe-partout and then framing it in a black wooden box. This classic method not only gives visual priority to the image but also fits seamlessly into most interiors. However, if you prefer a different look, other framing options are also available. Additionally, to ensure the highest levels of production, all of our frames are handcrafted to museum standards by one of the UK’s leading workshops. Please note that prices include tax, but exclude framing and shipping costs.

Shipping

We aim to ship unframed works within 2 weeks and framed works within 6 weeks. All orders are shipped from the UK and we always strive to deliver your print as quickly as possible. However, the delivery times may vary, depending on the specific artwork and your location. For exact details, please get in touch. Please note that prices include tax, but exclude framing and shipping costs.

Artwork In Detail

Dennis Stock captured a defining image of Californian counterculture in the 1960s. Taken at the Venice Beach Rock Festival in 1968, Stock’s photograph of a woman dancing on stage encapsulates the era’s spirit of freedom and rebellion. It is also a key work from his acclaimed book, ‘California Trip’ (1970), which offers a nuanced portrayal of the complexities within the hippie movement, moving beyond idealised visions to reveal the underlying tensions and contradictions of the time. Overall, the series highlights both the energy and the nuanced realities of the counterculture era. Presented in collaboration with Magnum Photos.
