David Bowie, Aladdin Sane - This iconic album cover image was taken in Duffy’s London studios in 1973 and was the second of five sessions Duffy shot with David. This photo has been the one image that has defined David’s career and is nicknamed the ‘Mona Lisa of Pop’. The teardrop on David’s collarbone was airbrushed in by Philip Castle. The makeup artist was Pierre La Roche. -

The Victoria & Albert Museum used this photograph as the lead image for the ‘David Bowie is’ exhibition which has toured worldwide and attracted over 1.6 million visitors. This image has become almost as well known as the original Aladdin Sane cover image. -

This rare image of David taken by Duffy was unreleased until it was published in the Five Sessions book. The contact sheet revealed the Scottie Dog walking in during a meeting for the Lodger photo shoot and sitting in the chair next to David. -

Original Polaroid image used on the Lodger album cover, London 1979. After shooting on Kodachrome film David preferred the look of the SX70 Polaroid and this shot was used as the album cover. You can just about make out the wires that were attached to David’s face and gently pulled to distort his features. -
