'Two Pair Legs in Black Stockings, Paris, 1979' is a 20'x 24' vintage silver gelatin print hand signed by Helmut Newton on front with Estate Copyright stamp and date inscription on verso. Helmut Newton`s distinct style of eroticism and highly produced images was deemed rebellious and revolutionary in its time, as he turned the expected notion of beauty, depicted by passive and submissive women, on its head. Depicting his models as strong and powerful women, Newton reversed gender stereotypes and examined society`s understanding of female desire.
Helmut Newton (1920-2004) was one of the world`s most celebrated photographers whose uniquely edgy imagery is coveted worldwide by collectors and aficionados of photographic art. Mr. Newton`s 'Private Property' exhibitions were produced by agreement in Paris, London and New York City in 1985.
