Chinese collector buys ‘nudi bruni’
Apr 12th, 2008 | By Chris | Category: News and events, Random Shanghai stuff...A Chinese collector has bought this picture of the French president’s missus.
“The image of President Nicolas Sarkozy’s wife was taken by photographer Michel Comte 15 years ago and shows a younger, nude Ms Bruni facing the camera with her hands crossed at her waist.
A buyer for a Chinese art collector yesterday bought the black-and-white 1993 photo for $91,000 – more than 22 times its estimate of £1,500 to £2,000, auction house Christies said.”
