David Bowie and Elizabeth Taylor Beverly Hills 1975 Photography Print

The soft haze of a 1975 Beverly Hills afternoon clings to this monochrome scene, where two titans of 20th-century culture share a cigarette and a close embrace. Captured by Terry O’Neill, this print displays a rare, vulnerable connection between the Thin White Duke and the legendary screen star.

About David Bowie

David Bowie (1947–2016) constantly reinvented his music and image, from Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke. Bowie’s striking stage looks made him one of the most photographed musicians of all time. Music photographs capture the energy of a performance or the quiet moments behind the scenes. In the 1970s, rock moved into arenas and its posters became bigger, bolder and more graphic. The original dates from 1975.
