A high-contrast silver gelatin print featuring a close-up studio portrait of the musician David Bowie. The subject is captured in a frontal composition, performing a shushing gesture with his right index finger pressed to his lips. The image is rendered with deep blacks and bright highlights, creating a stark monochromatic effect that emphasizes the details of the subject’s hair and skin texture against a plain white background. There are faint white markings present in the bottom-left corner over the subject’s dark clothing; these markings are not legible as a name or signature. A small dark horizontal dash is visible in the right-hand margin of the white background, and a small dark dot is located in the left-hand margin. The print is unframed and unmounted.
