Step into the world of high fashion and cinematic elegance with "Rue Aubriot, Paris 1975," one of Helmut Newton’s most celebrated images. Part of Newton’s Private Property Collection, this photograph captures actress Vibeke Knudsen standing alone on a dimly lit Parisian street, exuding the androgynous allure of Yves Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking tuxedo.

Shot using only available street lighting, this piece draws inspiration from the nocturnal photography of Brassai, one of Newton’s greatest influences. The location—Rue Aubriot in Paris' Marais district—was Newton’s home for 14 years, adding a deeply personal dimension to this now-legendary image.  Read more about Helmut Newton's Rue Aubriot here.

In a 1988 interview with New York Magazine, Newton recalled: "Vibeke was a girl I often worked with in those days. The idea was a man-woman standing in the street at night – the street, in fact, in Paris’ Marais district, where I lived for 14 years."
