About Top Gun
Released in 1986 under the direction of Tony Scott, Top Gun became a generational phenomenon and one of the most iconic aviation films in the history of cinema.
Tom Cruise plays Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, a young US Navy fighter pilot, opposite his rival Tom “Iceman” Kazansky, played by Val Kilmer. In 2022, Top Gun: Maverick, directed by Joseph Kosinski, reunited the two actors and became one of the biggest box-office hits of all time, passing one and a half billion dollars.
But the image that endures through the decades remains Maverick in a leather jacket and aviators, his motorbike racing along the tarmac at sunset — one of the most reproduced shots in cinema. Our framed Fine Art photo prints celebrate these mythical moments, in black and white or, for some, in colour, for a living room, an office or a home cinema.
Frequently asked questions
Which Top Gun films and characters do you offer as framed prints?
Our Top Gun collection covers the most sought-after moments of both films, from Top Gun (1986) to Top Gun: Maverick (2022). You will find Tom Cruise as Maverick, Val Kilmer as Iceman, the F-14 Tomcat and F/A-18 fighter jets, the leather jackets and aviators, as well as the flight scenes and the famous tarmac at sunset. Each print is offered as a numbered limited edition on Fine Art photo paper. Ideal for a living room, an office or a home cinema, it recreates the adrenaline and timeless aesthetic of the saga begun by Tony Scott.
Are the Top Gun photos available in black and white?
Yes. Most of our Top Gun prints are offered in black and white — a finish that heightens the lines of the fighter jets, the grain of the leather jacket and the intensity of the pilot portraits. Some images are also available in colour, notably the tarmac and sunset scenes, which shine at their brightest in colour. Each print is produced on Fine Art photo paper and hand-framed in solid wood in our in-house workshop, with a black or white mat of your choice. Black and white remains the most requested by collectors for a smart, timeless display, but colour appeals to fans of the flight scenes.
Are these Top Gun prints authentic, and in which formats?
Each Top Gun print is a traceable collector's piece, not a mere reproduction. Produced as a numbered limited edition on Fine Art photo paper, it comes with its certificate of authenticity (COA), a hologram and a traceability QR code that guarantee its origin. Two formats to choose from: 70×50 cm (Starck Original) or 60×40 cm (Starck Medium), hand-framed in solid wood in our in-house workshop, black or white mat. Everything arrives ready to hang and carefully packed — the standards of an art gallery applied to every order, so your Top Gun photo stands the test of time.
Does a Top Gun print make a great gift, and do you deliver across Europe?
Yes, it is one of our most popular gifts. A framed Top Gun print — Maverick in his leather jacket, Iceman or an F-14 Tomcat — delights lovers of aviation, fine machines and 1980s cinema, and suits a birthday, a housewarming or Christmas alike. The work arrives framed, numbered and ready to hang, with its certificate of authenticity: a gift as elegant as it is instantly presentable. We ship tracked and insured across the whole of Europe, in reinforced packaging that protects the frame and the glass.
