Duffy

I just discovered Brian Duffy's work. He was in the same swinging London scene as David Bailey and Terence Donovan but he didn't achieve the same level of success that they did. Although he was responsible for the Aladdin Sane cover and for that I am eternally grateful. His fashion work is pretty amazing but his ad campaign for Benson & Hedges is nothing short of genius. I can't believe that no one has recycled that idea. I can totally see an Alexander McQueen shoe in that bird cage. But anyway, Brian Duffy passed away very recently; he was still alive when I found these photos a few months ago. RIP.
