Schirmer/Mosel Helmut Newton Portraits - European & American Icons

Helmut Newton's "Portraits: Bilder aus Europa und Amerika" brings together an unrivaled gallery of faces that defined film, fashion, politics and culture. Published by Schirmer/Mosel, this volume offers a rare look at the photographer's most celebrated subjects, a true pantheon of VIPs from both continents.

By the 1980s, every star and influencer sought his lens, knowing the result would be bold, honest and unforgettable. In front of his camera, men and women literally and figuratively stripped away their covers, exposing raw personality beneath the glamour. The book captures those staged creations with the same intensity that made Newton a legend, allowing readers to experience the power of his vision. Whether you are a photography enthusiast, a collector of iconic imagery, or simply appreciate striking visual storytelling, this collection delivers a compelling journey through the world's most influential faces as seen by one of the medium's greatest masters.
