Kate Moss

Collectors handed over £183,000 for the chance to own an original print of Kate Moss.

The early photographs of the supermodel date back to the early 1990’s and include some nude shots taken in her early 20s.

A 1996 print, entitled Kate Moss (Hand on Neck), went for £38,400, while a controversial image of Kate at Home taken for Vogue by Corrine Day in 1993, sold for £6,600.

It depicts the then 19 year old Moss in pants and a pink top, surrounded by fairy lights. A further set of six prints taken by Chuck Close in 2003 went for the highest price of £84,000.

Finally a 96in by 72in image of Moss, taken in Marrakesh by fashion photographer Albert Watson for the German edition of Vogue in January 1993, sold for five times the expected amount at £54,000.
