LADY GAGA x TONY BENNETT

After recording “Lady Is a Tramp” for Tony Bennett’s newest album, Duets II, Lady Gaga posed for Bennett and Vanity Fair contributing photographer Annie Leibovitz in New York City. The resulting drawing and photograph can be seen exclusively in the January 2012 issue of Vanity Fair, available on newsstands now. You can own the original charcoal drawing, an original print of the Vanity Fair cover photograph signed by Annie Leibovitz, or one of several other unique items from the Vanity Fair shoot.

All proceeds go to Tony Bennett’s charity, Exploring the Arts, and Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation.



Tony Bennett created this charcoal portrait of Lady Gaga using Prismacolor Premier Art vine Charcoal sticks working on Fabriano Artisico heavy weight watercolor paper. The portrait measures 18" x 24" and is signed by the artist, using his given name "Benedetto" which is how Tony Bennett signs his original artwork.
