Item Description

A rare and powerful image capturing the raw energy of the Sex Pistols at the height of their cultural rebellion. Shot in 1977 by the then-17-year-old Dennis Morris, this photograph offers an intimate, behind-the-scenes glimpse of the band backstage in Penzance, Cornwall, during their notorious S.P.O.T.S. (Sex Pistols On Tour Secretly) tour. This bromide fibre print, produced in 2005, is edition 1 of 5 (+2 artist’s proofs) and is signed on verso by Dennis Morris. Beautifully presented in a bespoke wenge frame by Darbyshire, London — widely regarded as one of the finest framers in the UK — the piece measures an impressive 100 x 149 cm, commanding attention in any setting. A cornerstone of British punk history, this photograph embodies the defiant spirit and cultural impact of the era. A true collector’s piece — striking, authentic, and iconic.
