Don't miss your chance to own this exclusive piece of memorabilia!

This lot is the iconic image of David Bowie as The Thin White Duke taken by renowned Rock photographer, John Rowlands, on February 26th, 1976, at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto, Canada.

Having seen the previous evening’s show on the 1976 Station To Station tour, Rowlands was primed to capture the image of Bowie as The Archer while the singer was preparing to fire his imaginary bow and arrow.

The pose was used as a signal for Bowie's lighting engineer to kill the lights. The picture was taken moments before the lights were killed. Rowlands took the shot about 30 feet away from the stage and he credits his Hasselblad camera for producing an image that is striking in its sharp tonal range of whites, blacks and grays.
