CLAUDIA SCHIFFER

PHOTOGRAPHER: ANTOINE VERGLAS This portrait of Claudia Schiffer, one of the world’s most successful models was taken in New York in 1989. It is part of a series shot by Antoine Verglas very early on in his career for Elle France, featuring the most famous models of the time in the confidential setting of their everyday life.  In late 1989, Schiffer starred in campaigns for Guess. The brand has become much more known globally because of Claudia. After several other magazine appearances including the cover of British Vogue, Schiffer was selected by Karl Lagerfeld to become the new face of Chanel. The documentary-like approach mixed with the photographer’s unique personality makes anyone at ease and feels very special, giving this photograph a sense of realism and a uniquely intimate and sensual feel which has become known as the “Verglas Signature”. 13x20 - Edition of 15 24x36  - Edition of 15 29x44 - Edition of 10 40x60 - Edition of 10 45x70 - Edition of 5 Larger exceptional formats and custom sizes available upon request at contact@theselectsgallery.com.
