Alec Byrne shot of David Bowie at Paddington Green, London in September 1969. Paddington Green is a conservation area in the borough of Westminster. The structure that Bowie is leaning against is still in the park.
Alec Byrne recalls "When we met at the park gates he was on his own. I didn’t rush into taking pictures right away. I’d been a rock photographer in London since the age of seventeen, and in those three years, I’d learned how important it was to put people at their ease before the camera came out. So we walked and talked.”

A great print deserves a great frame. At Rockarchive we would be delighted to advise you on how best to select the right frame for your print. Please just let us know when you place your order or contact us once you have received your print and we will discuss the various options with you.
If you live in London we can arrange to get your print framed for you. Once the print is framed you can either collect it from our London Rockarchive Studio, in Kentish Town or we can arrange for it to be delivered to your London address (at an extra charge).
If you live elsewhere in the UK, we can arrange to get smaller sized prints framed and shipped to you. However due to postage regulations acrylic (eg perspex) rather than glass needs to be used in the frame.
If you live outside of the UK, we are sorry we are unable to ship framed prints to you.
For all framing enquiries please contact us at info@rockarchive.com or call us on +44 (0) 20 7267 4716
