anthology of David Bowie images that has ever been compiled. With
work by many of the most eminent names in photography, this book

the awe inspiring, the candid and the surprising. An astonishing 25

extraordinary figure. From portraits and album covers, performances

friend, the artist George Underwood. When David Bowie passed away
on 10 January 2016, the world lost a musical hero. But his legacy
lives on. While his sound and style evolved throughout his career -
from Ziggy to the Thin White Duke - two facts never changed: he was
an innovator; and photographers adored him. This book pays homage
to this ultimate icon.
