Steve Parke: "Prince"

Marking the 10th anniversary of Prince’s death, Prince by Steve Parke reveals a stunning collection of exclusive photographs by the singer’s own award-winning photographer and art director, Steve Parke.

Prince. Visionary, multi-instrumentalist and extraordinary showman. One of the most influential and inspiring pop superstars of the 20th century.

Now, Prince: Black, White, Color reveals the artist as he’s never been seen before thanks to a unique and exclusive set of photographs, many published here for the first time, all captured by Prince’s own trusted art director – award-winning photographer Steve Parke.

These intimate photos allow readers an extremely rare glimpse of Prince at Paisley Park, at his sun-drenched house in Marbella, and at work in the studio, posing for portraits as well as moments of quiet tenderness with his first wife Mayte Garcia and their beloved dog Mia.

With over 250 images, this stunning volume marks the 10th anniversary of Prince’s passing by showing a side of him that was seldom if ever publicised during his lifetime.
