About this photo
Steve McQueen his Triumph TR6 during the filming of *The Great Escape*
This exceptional photograph captures Steve McQueen a break on the set of *The Great Escape* in 1963, sitting on his legendary Triumph TR6. The King of Cool, a car enthusiast in real life, had insisted on performing most of his own motorcycle stunts. John Sturges, the director, had initially refused but eventually gave in to the determination of Steve McQueen. This image reflects the raw authenticity that defined the actor, far removed from Hollywood artifice.
"The Great Escape" grossed $11.7 million at the global box office and definitively catapulted McQueen to the status of an international superstar. Alongside James Garner and Charles Bronson, he delivered a memorable performance that left an indelible mark on the adventure film genre. This Allied Artists production remains a definitive classic of the war film genre, thanks in large part to its now-iconic motorcycle sequence.
Own this icon of freedom that embodies McQueen’s timeless rebellious spirit.
