'HEATH LEDGER' PORTRAIT BY JOHNNY DEPP  ''THE FRIENDS AND HEROES SERIES''

'HEATH LEDGER' PORTRAIT BY JOHNNY DEPP ''THE FRIENDS AND HEROES SERIES''


Description

Bid now on this opportunity to own a portrait of the inimitable Heath Ledger, from The Friends and Heroes II Series by award-winning actor Johnny Depp, edition 177 of 250.

In addition to being an award-winning actor, Johnny Depp also owns some of the world’s most coveted names in contemporary art in his private collection. From Basquiat to Banksy, Depp has amassed an eminently credible portfolio that demonstrates his love for visual art. Less widely known is that Depp is also an artist and creator in his own right, having discovered an innate love for drawing and painting in his childhood, long before music and film first featured in his life.

Depp and Ledger were very close friends for over a decade before his tragic and unexpected death in January 2008. The Friends & Heroes collection are stylistically bold and intensely individual pieces of art which sees Depp depicting people he has known well or who have inspired him as a person.
