Also known as “The Red Ceiling” Eggleston comments on his work: “ 'The Red Ceiling' is so powerful that, in fact, I've never seen it reproduced on the page to my satisfaction. When you look at a dye-transfer print it's like it's red blood that is wet on the wall.”
This beautiful piece became synonymous with Big Star, Radio City. - Identifier
