Peter Max commemorates Taylor Swift

The "Speak Now" portrait is Max's second time to immortalize Swift's album art. He unveiled a series of four portraits of her "Fearless" album earlier this year in a series of gallery showings. Max has gifted his first "Fearless" original work to Swift, but now the Max portraits, from both "Fearless" and "Speak Now," are available as poster artwork and as commissioned originals.

Max's Taylor Swift works are being sold exclusively on www.TaylorSwift.com.

The Max / Swift relationship began when Max painted a portrait of Taylor's Fearless album cover upon learning that Taylor was launching her 2010 Fearless tour in Tampa the same week that he had a gallery showing there.

"I've been doing portraits of iconic musicians for so many years, and it is a pleasure to add Taylor Swift to the collection," said Max. "She is one of the most beautiful and talented stars we have today."

Swift is a lifelong fan of his, having often seen his work on display in the Ocean Gallery in Stone Harbor, N.J. Swift remembered walking past the gallery window many times as a child and young teen. Max's Fearless portraits were featured in several gallery exhibitions, but were not available for sale.
