Condition

This photograph is in generally excellent condition. In raking light, a sharp crescent-shaped crease and a thin linear impression are visible in the center portion of the image, neither of which appear to break the emulsion. The margin edges and corners have some insignificant wear, as well as a few small handling creases. On the reverse of the print, '2084/18' is annotated in pencil. The stamps on the reverse of the print read: 'COPYRIGHT / HELMUT NEWTON / PARIS, FRANCE' and 'Not to be reproduced in any way without written permission from Helmut Newton.'
