About the Item
This evocative image by Robert Mapplethorpe features the model Thomas, captured in a graceful, slightly crouching pose. Set against a neutral backdrop punctuated by a geometric, diamond-white shape, the composition creates a striking visual contrast that accentuates Thomas’s sculptural form and posture.
Thomas is Thomas Williams, also known as Joe Simmons—one of Mapplethorpe’s recurring muses during the 1980s. Williams began as a bodybuilder and aspiring actor, and his commanding presence became widely recognized through Mapplethorpe’s lens. He later appeared in more than 100 adult films under his alternate name, adding to his cultural imprint.
Presented in a black wood frame with a 1-inch front profile and a 3/4-inch side profile, set behind a 4-inch mat, this piece comes from a 1994 box set of Robert Mapplethorpe photographs published by teNeues Publishing Company and printed in Germany. The elegant framing enhances the bold minimalism and sensual power of this iconic portrait.
