borbay - a portrait of tony soprano كلمات الأغنية

tony is the 4th portrait in my antihero series… this is how he was created

this is my third portrait series, following kick -ss actors in kick -ss roles and the #kingsofhiphop. i’m a life-long fan of the sopranos… so tony was a must-paint

here is some more information about the particular image used here:

how do you choose one iconic moment over six incredible seasons? i decided to use this snap from season 1 episode 5, when tony is sitting in the lobby of the college meadow is visiting, looking upward toward the hawth-rne quote, “no man can wear one face to himself and another to the mult-tude without finally getting bewildered as to which may be true”

this episode, particularly the moment tony strangles the rat, is considered the breakthrough moment of tv’s second golden age. beyond that, i didn’t want to portray the gangster puffing a cigar everyone expected to see. rather, this is part gandolfini’s 260 pound woody allen coupled with soprano’s idea of himself as the sad clown. not to be too heavy here, but there is also an element of st. sebastian (famously re-envisioned on the cover of esquire with ali) — certainly intentional by the amazing david chase

more antiheroes to come
