Offered here is a striking, vintage David Bowie Save the Children charity poster featuring a self-portrait by a music icon. This is an exceptional crossover piece for Bowie collectors, rock-and-roll memorabilia enthusiasts, and designers seeking bold, sophisticated pop-culture imagery. The commanding close-up portrait reproduces artwork created by Bowie himself, revealing another dimension of the legendary musician’s considerable creative output beyond recording, performance, fashion, and film. Issued for Save the Children, the poster presents Bowie’s intensely rendered self-portrait above a dramatic deep teal graphic field bearing Save The Children, DAVID BOWIE, and the RYKO logo. The poster itself identifies the artwork at lower left as Self-Portrait, David Bowie 1988, Oil on canvas. This poster is in vintage condition, with visible surface scuffs, scratches, edge/corner wear and other signs of age and handling, as photographed. These characteristics are consistent with a vintage poster that has been displayed rather than a modern reproduction. It is matted and framed under acrylic in an ornate, golden frame. With frame, it measures 34.5 inches x 40.5 inches. This piece was acquired from a central Virginia estate.
