Peter Saville was born in 1955 in Manchester, Lancashire. He began his studies at Manchester Polytechnic for graphic design until 1978. Following his education, he had a meeting with Tony Wilson. Wilson owned Factory records, which was an established record label, and helped secure Saville’s entry into the music design scene. Below is an example of his promotional work for Factory Records (Petridis, 2013).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saville is most known for his album cover art, a majority of which he completed for artists under Factory Records. His most notable and recognizable imagery was for Joy Divisions album “Unknown Pleasures”. This imagery collected a cult following and had been re-printed and stolen countless times.
