David Bowie Ziggy Stardust #13 signed by Brian Duffy 
Shot during the first of five sessions with David Bowie as his iconic character Ziggy Stardust. He was wearing a costume he had designed with fashion designer Freddie Burretti and posing with a red teardrop 12-string guitar, which was a borrowed prop. A few weeks earlier, David had chosen this outfit for his iconic 1972 appearance on Top Of The Pops with The Spiders From Mars. A performance which made David Bowie a household name, influencing a generation.

During this time, Duffy was one of the few exclusive photographers who manager Tony Defries allowed to photograph Bowie in the fast-moving early stages of his career. Shot just five months before Aladdin Sane in August 1972, Bowie was coming to the end of the UK dates of the Ziggy Stardust World Tour before heading to North America in September.

Freddie Burretti designed the costume displayed at the 'David Bowie is V&A Museum exhibition.
