  • Catalogue Essay

    For the cover of the January 1990 issue of British Vogue, Peter Lindbergh photographed Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Tatjana Patitz, Christy Turlington and Cindy Crawford – all together for the first time – on the streets of New York. The inside story, featuring images of Lindbergh and the supermodels, speculated how modelling might change in the coming decade. He has exhibited at the Centre Pompidou, Paris and the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, and another print of this image is featured in the current exhibition Vogue 100: A Century of Style at the National Portrait Gallery in London. Lindbergh's works are part of many collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Victoria & Albert Museum, London; and the Fonds National d’Art Contemporain, Paris.

    This image was realised in four different sizes of which the present lot is the largest. Although monochromatic, the oversized prints in the edition of three were produced using colour photographic papers due to its expansive size.
