Raphael Mazzucco
50 Shades of Sultry | 2018
5 pieces
When the erotic romance novel Fifty Shades of Grey hit shelves in 2011, it was an instant success. Written by British novelist E.L. James, the book tracks the explosive sexual relationship between college graduate Anastasia Steele and mysterious businessman Christian Grey. Our artist Raphael Mazzucco collaborated with the record-breaking author for his series of provocative prints.
Bringing words to life
Featuring beautiful photography overlaid with elements of collage and iconic phrases from the books, each artwork is individually hand-signed by the artist and the Fifty Shades of Grey author, who was heavily involved with the proect.
New chapter for author
When asked about the collection, E.L. James said: “I am thrilled to be involved with this project and to be working with an artist as inspired and original as Raphael Mazzucco. He’s brought a tremendous passion and lust for life to his interpretation of Fifty Shades.”
