A series of intimate portraits of The Rolling Stones in Joshua Tree National Park, Stonehenge, London and Los Angeles in the 1960s are on display in London this week. The photographs, which show the band as their fame escalated during the tail end of the decade, were taken by close friend and photographer Michael Cooper. They’re part of a new exhibition, “Courting The Stones: Photographs by Michael Cooper,” at London’s Proud Galleries through November 22. Cooper photographed the band several times during their career, and also captured iconic images of The Beatles, Eric Clapton, Marianne Faithful and artists including Andy Warhol and Peter Blake, as well as the cover photography for The Beatles’ Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.
