A rare vintage photograph of Joy Division’s Ian Curtis, taken by Kevin Cummins for the Retna Pictures stock photo agency. This is an original hand-printed photograph, made from the original negative and printed near the time the photograph was taken.  As a “vintage print”, it is much more collectible and valuable than a recent print.

Kevin Cummins is a British photographer known for photographs of rock bands and musicians including Mick Jagger, Ian Curtis, Joy Division, Morrissey, Courtney Love, Patti Smith, and David Bowie.

The Retna Pictures catalogue sticker along with handwritten notes indicating Cummins as photographer are on the photograph’s back.

Near Mint condition, 8×10″.
