POA (photos of actual artwork)

From the acclaimed Private Property portfolio that Newton considered to be his most provocative and important early work, this image appeared in US Vogue in 1983. Bowie and Newton shared a mutual respect for each other's creative genius, and became great personal friends, as well as Bowie becoming an avid collector of Newton's work.

This is a rare pre-1985 original vintage print produced in small numbers from a series of transparencies that Newton considered his most provocative and important work through 1985. Always unsigned, they were sent out to major publications to stimulate interest in a photographer's work. Most were destroyed or written over, it is very rare to find them in immaculate condition.
