“Hotel California” (The Eagles)
About this piece: Unique high grade brushed aluminium artwork with a hand varnished finish presented in a matt black wood frame.
Hotel California stands as an iconic anthem in rock history, its cryptic lyrics and haunting melody have become absorbed into the wider culture around the world. The song weaves a surreal tale of a weary traveler stumbling upon a seemingly ordinary hotel, only to find themselves plunged into a nightmarish Labyrinth of strange inhabitants and unsettling mysteries. This timeless masterpiece not only ascended to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1977 but also claimed the prestigious Record of the Year at the 20th Grammy Awards in 1978.
In a unique visual homage to the enigmatic lyrics, the artwork for Hotel California meticulously captures the essence of the song. The focal point features the unmistakable silhouette of the “Beverley Hills Hotel,” serving as a poignant symbol for the narrative. Surrounding this iconic imagery are lush palm trees and the backdrop is adorned with vintage maps of the Beverly Hills foothills and abstract pastel colours. The artwork chronicles the lyrics of the song and features several specific references such as “She got the Mercedes-Benz” and “We haven’t had that spirit here since 1969”.
Each part of this unique artwork is hand crafted from several grades of bespoke aluminum. The artwork is on a high grade brushed aluminium plate with a flawless high gloss finish. It is mounted on bespoke brushed anodised aluminium with a precision machined aluminum finishing strip. ( Anodised aluminium is the same material as your i-phone which undergoes an electrolytic process to colour and harden the material to make it more resistant to scratches and fingerprints. )
