Helmut Newton – “Bordighera 1982” (Part II)

Helmut Newton – “Bordighera 1982” (Part II)
Limited Edition Fine Art Print from Italian Vogue, Printed on 300gsm Pro Platinum Glossy Archival Paper

The continuation of Newton’s Bordighera 1982 visual dialogue, Part II draws the viewer even closer—into the delicate ballet of eyelashes, skin, and silence. Cropped tighter and more abstract, the image feels like a whispered secret between strangers, suspended forever in grain and light.

This print captures Newton’s genius for balance: erotic without exposure, intimate without intrusion. A perfect counterpart to Part I, or a compelling standalone statement of tension, symmetry, and stillness.

Printed on 300gsm Pro Platinum Glossy Fine Art Paper, the image is razor-sharp with a lustrous finish that enhances every gradation of shadow and skin. This is modern eroticism rendered timeless.
