Remembering Linda
-
Today we celebrate the life and birthday of Linda McCartney, whose life was sadly and untimely cut short. It is truly a celebration of a very kind, gentle, benevolent humanitarian, who shone a very bright light into our world.
Here's one of Linda's photos, in which she was blowing up balloons for someone's birthday on a very windy day, and apparently they wound up in the stairwell...

It was only £4,000 when I first saw it!

Haven't seen this photo before, not sure what year it was taken, but I love how happy they look

1980

Sweet family photo (circa 1974?)
-
1974 is what I’d say too.
I bet Paul misses those days. I know I do!

Saw this on Instagram... not sure what interview the quote is from, but really loved reading it

Was thinking of Linda's exhibit photo, with Paul's reflection in the mirror.
Hope I get to see that exhibit again and the Polaroid one as well!!!

Is this the photo you were thinking of? It's one of the best photos Linda took of him I think... of course there's so many good ones!

I'm guessing this was in Linda's new Polaroid photos book... not sure when it was taken but it looks like circa 1995. Love the hearts they drew under the photo.

That is definitely a most THUD worthy photo! The photo I was thinking of was the gold framed mirror which might have been in the living room? There are a number of photos of reflections in that mirror. Can't really remember now, if I run across it I'll put the link up.
There was a really cool photo Linda took of various sized lava lamps, a Magritte painting and perhaps a tiny spotted Appaloosa horse, that I really loved. Was hoping for a print of that one and the glass teapot with the upsidedown trees...a couple of my favs of Linda's. I really enjoyed that exhibit and am hoping it's coming to NYC, her hometown. I wish now, that I had spent at least two days, to take it all in, properly. Can't wait to see her polaroid exhibit as well. The photo's that I had hoped to see again(and weren't there) was the tall one of Jimi, from the Gagosian in 2015, the one of Paul in Venice, on the balcony, platinum print... from the James Hyman Gallery in 2008 and I got to see the print in Barbados of the boys on the beach, at the Gagosian. I had noticed there were some of Linda's photos, not on exhibit, in a side room there, and one of the staff was nice enough to let me look at those too... That exhibit was so unique in that it had iPads with Linda's film strips, so you could see all of the photos taken with the film. Some of the photos, such as the one of Jimi's, really jumped out at you. That was a treat!

Wish I could see one of Linda's exhibits! But having the photo books is the next best thing I guess
