A Supersonic investment

The artwork, titled "Liam + Noel (Gallagher)," draws inspiration from a promotional photograph captured by the late Stefan De Batselier. The portrait depicts the iconic siblings in their signature oversized tracksuits, sporting Beatles-inspired hairstyles. The composition is particularly notable for its intimate portrayal, with Liam's chin delicately placed on Noel's shoulder — a pose that creates an intriguing contrast between their public image and a more vulnerable, private moment.

During the height of Cool Britannia in the 1990s, Peyton captured a moment in music history with their remarkable work, coinciding with Oasis's record-breaking performances at Knebworth Park, Hertfordshire. In a fascinating turn of events, this artwork is heading to auction in London, perfectly timed with Oasis's highly anticipated reunion tour. The legendary band is set to perform sold-out shows across the UK, Ireland, North America (including several Canadian venues) and South America this summer.
