Lot Essay

‘In Paris in 1973, Helmut Newton was the top photographer... We worked together for over thirty year... And we produced some beautiful pictures... He liked his women strong, haughty and cruel. He loved it when I would claw, bite and spit on my fellow model, be it male or female.’ Jerry Hall
