SHEPARD FAIREY
John Lennon "Peace" — Statue of Liberty Edition
Hand-Signed by Shepard Fairey · Hand-Numbered 240/300 · Limited Edition
What You Are Getting
An authentic Shepard Fairey screenprint depicting John Lennon in his iconic NYC silhouette — military-style trench coat, beret, round sunglasses, peace sign raised — set against the Statue of Liberty haloed by a rising sun. Printed in Fairey's signature palette of muted blue, cream, red, and gold with halftone dot patterns and chevron underlay. Hand-numbered 240/300 in pencil and pencil-signed by Shepard Fairey. A relatively small edition for Fairey, making this a more scarce release than the typical 450-edition prints.
Note: The "Reminder: peel off protective films" text visible in the listing photos is the protective plastic on the acrylic glazing of the display frame — it is not printed on the artwork. The actual print surface is clean.

About the Work
John Lennon's NYC era — from his 1971 move to Manhattan through his murder outside the Dakota in December 1980 — produced some of the most enduring photographic images of any musician of the 20th century. The trench-coat-and-NYC-tee silhouette has become permanent visual shorthand for late-period Lennon, peace activism, and the American immigrant story. Shepard Fairey draws those threads together here: Lennon raises a peace sign in the foreground while the Statue of Liberty — the most direct visual symbol of welcome and political idealism in the United States — rises behind him with a sun-disc halo.
The composition fits cleanly into Fairey's larger body of musician portraits (Joe Strummer, Debbie Harry, Bob Marley, Joey Ramone) and his political work. At an edition of 300, this is a relatively scarce Fairey release — most signed editions run 450 or higher.
About the Artist

Fairey's work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art (NY), Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Smithsonian, the Victoria and Albert Museum (London), and many others. His prints are actively collected and resold through Sotheby's, Christie's, Heritage Auctions, and Artsy.

How does Gauntlet Gallery verify authenticity?
Every piece is reviewed against available authentication documentation before listing. For signed prints we cross-reference COA issuers, publisher records, edition counts, signature placement, and known release details. For music and space memorabilia we work with Beckett, JSA, PSA, and Zarelli Space Authentication. Items that cannot be documented to our standard are not listed.
How do you document condition?
We photograph each print under consistent lighting to show the actual paper, frame condition, ink saturation, and any aging or edge wear. Condition notes describe observable marks, foxing, deckle wear, or print aging in specific terms — not vague labels like "good." If a piece has a flaw that affects collectibility or value, we say so explicitly. Request additional close-ups before purchase.
How is the print packed and shipped?
Prints ship flat between two acid-free rigid boards inside a corrugated outer mailer with rigid corner protection. Larger prints over 24×30 may ship rolled inside a thick-walled tube with archival tissue. All shipments are insured for full value with tracked carrier service. Framed pieces ship in custom-cut wood crates with foam edge protection. Signature on delivery required over $500.
What documentation is included?
Original COAs, publisher certificates, third-party authentication letters, and Gauntlet Gallery condition reports ship with the artwork. Every piece also gets a blockchain-verified COA on Polygon via TrueCOA, permanently anchoring provenance. Specific documentation for each listing is noted in the product description.
Why buy from Gauntlet Gallery instead of a marketplace?
Marketplaces give access but leave buyers to judge authenticity, condition, pricing, and seller credibility alone. Gauntlet adds a trust layer through detailed photos, item history, condition notes, pricing context against 50,000+ market comps, fake-risk review, and blockchain-anchored documentation. Every listing is prepared by the same curator who sourced and reviewed the piece.
