About the Item

All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. The Women series is a collection of artistic photographs featuring celebrity figures. Intimate and direct, the viewer is confronted by the assertive demeanour presented through the central composition and neutral background. The passive woman of traditional fashion portraiture is replaced by an iconic image of the modern woman. The saturated colours of the broiling desert against the piercing blue of the clear sky or the cool palette of an intimate black-and-white portrait; Michel Comte can do it all. The Swiss star photographer has made his mark on fashion and celebrity photography ever since his first international advertising campaign for Karl Lagerfeld in 1979. Comte’s oeuvre truly is the work of an homme modern – capturing the most celebrated figures of the century from boxers to supermodels. However, despite the famous figures in front of this lens, Comte’s work is always about the human. His portraits, nudes, or fashion campaigns always come especially close to his subjects and create an intimate setting for the viewer.
