Eight major artists have created official limited edition prints for Team GB at the Rio 2016 Olympics, and The Independent has secured five of each print at a special price.

The eclectic prints were designed by Tracey Emin, Anne Hardy, Howard Hodgkin, Sarah Jones, Eddie Peake, Benjamin Senior, David Shrigley, and Sam Taylor-Johnson, and range from geometric depictions of swimmers to photo collages and broad oil strokes in the colours of the Brazilian flag.

Prints and posters have been commissioned for each of the Games since 1912, and this year the artists were asked to create unique images in celebration of Rio and Brazil, with the spirit of Team GB as their inspiration.

To see the selection and to buy an edition, go to countereditions.com/independent, and once at the checkout enter your special Independent readers' code: RIO2016IND

The limited edition prints will formally go on sale exclusively at Counter Editions from 2 August, to coincide with the start of the Games.
