According to Daily Mail, the nude pictures were part of world's most beautiful women photographs collection that also include an original image of French icon Brigitte Bardot and American actress Lauren Hutton.
The photographs of the two supermodels were taken by photographer Irving Penn. In the collection portrait, Bundchen can be seen bending her body forward, exposing her right breast and crossing her long legs. Daily Mail described the Amazonian photo of Bundchen stating, "Athletic Giselle Bundchen goes au natural with bronzed skin and tousled locks for this Irving Penn portrait." Meanwhile, Moss was photographed with her back facing the camera. The portrait was taken in 1996 and show the yet innocent and unspoilt model.
The two pictures are expected to gather about $30,000 to $40,000, while the overall extensive collection of collector Gert Elfering featuring 135 rare original prints is hoped to bring in an estimated $3 million. Some of the collection are displayed at Christie's in King Street, London on Monday (10.03.08). In the meantime, several of the photographs can bee seen at Daily Mail.
