Iconic images of Prince

Hi everyone, I made this thread to get some opinions going. What do you think is 'THE' image of Prince? No matter well known or not.

I'm going to be modding my biker jacket soon and I want to paint Prince on the back, but I'm not sure which image to use! So it'd be great to get some insight as to what you guys think is the image of Prince that best represents him and his career.

My initial ideas are:

Thanks! ~

Before there are many other pictures, posting on and on and on... Prince is a man of many changes, and styles...

But there is only one ICONIC image...

That's the Purple trenchcoat, nothing more.

Thanks for the suggesions! I like what I'm seeing smile

I'm gonna have to work up the courage to do something like Prince on his bike, I've only ever painted on leather once and that was tonight haha. I painted (omg don't judge lmao anime is punk AF tbh), one of my favourite anime characters on one of the sleeves so it was pretty simple as it's only a cartoon. I'm defo leaning towards doing him on his bike though.

It's not considered iconic, but my all time fave is the ('86 tour prog) Jeff Katz close up of P in the yellow suit.

So do I. Can't beat Jeff Katz's shots of P imo.
