"I never heard a thing about Duffy being upset about the Scary Monsters sleeve design... It may have been one of the reasons that he never did another session with David again." - Chris Duffy
This photograph of David was unseen until it was published in the Five Sessions book. The contact sheet revealed the Scottie Dog walking in during a meeting regarding the Lodger photoshoot and sitting in the chair next to David. The location and story behind the image are pieced together with very limited information, adding to the picture's mystery and intrigue.
It has become a firm fan favourite and the most popular of Duffy's behind-the-scenes images.
Our Standard Archival Quality Pigment Ink Prints come in two sizes: Standard and Gallery. All of our prints are ready to frame and supplied with a choice of black or white acid-free mount.
A Standard Landscape print has an image size of approximately 5″ x 7.5″ (12.7cm x 19.05cm) in a 12.4″ x 12.4″ (31.5cm x 31.5cm) mount. Our Standard size open-edition prints are the same size as a 12.4" vinyl album sleeve for convenient framing.
A Gallery Landscape print has an image size of approximately 8.25” x 12" (21 cm x 31 cm) in a 19.75 “ x 19.75" (50 cm x 50 cm) mount. Our Gallery size open edition prints drop straight into 50cm x 50cm frames, which are available from many retailers.
High-quality black frames for Gallery prints can be made in-house for mainland UK orders. Please contact us if you would like a framed print, and a quote will be provided.
A mount is a paper-based border between the frame and the image. It adds an extra decorative element and also prevents the print from touching the glass or perspex of the frame. We supply two sizes of mount, in either square or landscape/portrait aperture, in black or white.
As with all our prints, each open edition is handmade, printed, assembled and packed at the Duffy Archive. Each print is embossed with the Duffy Archive stamp, and the reverse of each mount has a sticker detailing a brief history of the session and ink stamped with a logo from Duffy's camera cases.
The fascinating story behind this timeless session is fully documented in the Duffy Bowie Five Sessions Book told by those who were there.
"He found himself in front of Duffy's lens for the first time, and although this session was not used (and no one is exactly sure why) this encounter was enough to place Duffy at the top of David's list when it came to collaborating on his next LP sleeve, six months later." - Kevin Cann
