In 2003, Chuck Close created a series of daguerreotypes of fashion legend Kate Moss for W magazine’s September issue, featuring a 40-page portfolio of uniquely personal visions of Kate created by leading artists. Close recalls the session:
'She wore no makeup; she hadn’t combed her hair. My daguerreotypes are not flattering – any flaws on one’s complexion are exaggerated wildly – and I thought she might be upset. But she said, ‘I’ve had enough pretty pictures made of me.’ She understood what it is that I do, and she was perfectly willing to provide it.'
Presented nude and without makeup in tightly cropped, unforgiving detail, Close perfectly captures Kate’s human essence as well as her confidence as a perennial beauty icon.
