In 1967, Donald Silverstein had an epic photoshoot with musician Jimi Hendrix.

Donald and Jimi only met once, but their connection was special, and the original image featured in this piece is a wonderful representation of that.

A single image of Donald and Jimi touching foreheads has been broken up into 101 customised puzzle shapes. There are 6 different shapes with various rarities.

The customised puzzle pieces are presented within the original negative border frame of the image.

Donald Silverstein was a fashion photographer who worked extensively with Cond Nast, Pirelli, Biba, and major brands in New York, London and Paris. A contemporary of David Bailey, Brian Duffy, Terence Donovan, Guy Bourdin and others, Silverstein produced prolific work during his lifetime.

In 1967, Donald was commissioned to photograph musician Jimi Hendrix for album art released on Track Records.

One photo was released as a poster insert for 'Electric Ladyland' album. This single image was heavily bootlegged and plagiarised for years.
