Description

Unique images of Prince in Paris

Set of four unreleased matte-finish prints, 6.25 x 9.25 and 9.25 x 6.25, taken of Prince at the beginning of the 1988 European Lovesexy tour in Paris. The photos include: a close-up of Prince with a hand in his hair; a close-up of Prince resting his chin on his arm, with large hoop earring visible; Prince sitting on a stoop with coat on his lap; and Prince looking at a variety of coats in a store, the hand of a mannequin over his head. Reverse of each photo initialed by the consignor, who was requested by Prince to photograph him in a Parisian courtyard and then when he went shopping in the city later that day. In overall fine condition. No rights are given or implied; these photos cannot be reproduced for any purpose without the consent of Sophie Roux. From the collection of Prince’s Parisian assistant Sophie Roux. A wonderful set of never-before-seen photos that portray Prince in artfully tranquil poses. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from Sophie Roux.
