This is My Favorite JAWS Poster Ever Created
This wonderfully horrific poster of Quint a few moments before he is about to be eaten by the shark might just be my favorite Jaws poster ever. The art is called "Quint’s Swan Song," and it was created by John Barry Ballaran. I love the sheer terror on Quint’s face in this thing. The guy never really showed an ounce of fear in the movie, until right before his death, and this captures it perfectly. In regards to his piece, the artist said:
“Conceptually focusing on the sheer power of Bruce [the shark] and the fear he instils in his greatest adversary Quint, during his final moments meeting his maker.”
“A homage to Spielberg's 'what you can't see is more terrifying' way of filming Jaws.”
This poster got to me late because it went on sale last week. You can check here to see if there are any prints left from the limited edition size of 195.
