CHUCK CLOSE (b.1940)
Lot 5'She wore no makeup; she hadn't combed her hair....My daguerreotypes are not flattering -- any flaws on one's complexion are exaggerated wildly -- and I thought she might be upset. But she said, "I've had enough pretty pictures made of me." She understood what it is that I do, and she was perfectly willing to provide it.' -- Chuck Close1

Note du spécialiste

In W magazine's September 2003 tribute to Kate Moss, which featured a 40-page portfolio of the supermodel by a roster of artists and photographers, Close presented his unflinching daguerreotype studies of Kate's bare face and body. The complete set of six prints comprising nine images made after the daguerreotypes appears at auction for the first time.
