About this print — Every single frame of the movie Becket has been analysed and averaged to a single colour. These colours are then arranged chronologically to create a unique fine art composition that captures the entire visual journey of Peter Glenville's film. Printed using archival pigment inks on 308gsm Hahnemühle photo rag fine art paper, each print is a museum-quality giclée produced to order and created in its original theatrical aspect ratio.

Debauched King Henry II installs his longtime court facilitator Thomas Becket as the Archbishop of Canterbury, assuming that his old friend will be a compliant and loyal lackey in the King's ongoing battles with the church. But Becket unexpectedly finds his true calling on the ecclesiastical side, and aligns himself against the king's selfish wishes, causing a rift and an eventual showdown not only between the two men, but also the institutions they represent.
