About the Item

Surreal Photograph of Nude Model with giant Spoon. This particular piece of art is part of the Lavazza series Watson photographed in 1996. 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. Albert Watson’s Carmen with a Spoon is a striking black-and-white portrait that exemplifies his signature blend of elegance and minimalism. In the image, the model—often identified simply as Carmen—holds a spoon in a carefully poised manner, creating a reflective focal point that draws the viewer’s eye. The clean backdrop, dramatic lighting, and careful attention to texture highlight both the model’s refined features and the sculptural shape of the spoon. The result is a quietly theatrical, almost surreal composition that demonstrates Watson’s mastery in balancing simplicity and visual intrigue. Albert Watson is known for creating deeply conceptual, yet visually striking portraits, often merging fashion with fine art. This specific photograph exemplifies his talent for blending surrealist elements with human emotion, making it an enduring piece of modern photography. It’s also notable for how it celebrates Wek’s groundbreaking role in redefining beauty standards in the 1990s. Albert Watson (* 1942, in Edinburgh) is one of photography's most influential masters, with works prominently displayed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Portrait Gallery in London, and the Smithsonian. His photographs are highly sought after by prestigious private collectors and have achieved record prices at auctions worldwide. A recipient of the Order of the British Empire (OBE), a Lucie Award, and numerous other honors, Watson's iconic images have graced over 100 Vogue covers and remain cornerstone pieces in major museum collections globally.
