Full Description:
Shot in New York in 1975, this iconic Helmut Newton photograph captures Elsa Peretti in a moment that defines the glamour and provocation of 1970s fashion. Posed high above the city skyline in a black bodysuit and signature bunny ears, Peretti embodies the fearless sensuality that marked Newton’s most memorable portraits.
The sharp contrast of Manhattan’s architecture against her sculpted form underscores Newton’s mastery of light and form — merging elegance, eroticism, and wit in perfect balance. A hallmark image from his American period, it remains one of his most recognizable and collectible works.
