Artist: Lincoln Townley
Artwork: Michael Caine
Series: The Icons Collection
Year: 2016
Edition: Limited edition of 25
Artwork Size: 60 × 60 cm

Michael Caine forms part of Lincoln Townley’s The Icons Collection, a body of work exploring some of the most recognisable and influential figures from film and popular culture.
In this striking portrait, Townley turns his attention to Michael Caine, one of Britain’s most celebrated actors and an enduring figure of British cinema. With a career spanning decades, Caine’s unmistakable image has become synonymous with a generation of film, style and popular culture.
Rather than approaching the subject as a conventional celebrity portrait, Townley uses his expressive visual language to explore the character and presence behind the familiar face. Energetic mark-making and a strong sense of contrast give the composition an immediate psychological intensity, reflecting Townley’s wider fascination with fame, ambition and identity.
Through The Icons Collection, Townley examines the individuals whose images have transcended their original context to become part of our collective cultural memory. Michael Caine embodies this idea, celebrating a figure whose influence extends far beyond the screen.
Created in 2016, Michael Caine was released as a particularly limited edition of just 25.
Presented framed.
