Description

Subject Matter:

A photograph from a portfolio of images in which Helmut Newton depicts celebrities, designers and models in highly contrived poses and often placed in decadent scenes. In this photograph, the model Winnie Hollman poses on a boat on the coast of Cannes. Holding onto the railing, she wears a white sailor hat and a body-forming outfit that highlights her pointed breasts. She looks out to sea where a boat with a group of people onboard passes. 

Physical Description:

This photograph depicts a woman standing on a sailboat deck, leaning on the railing and looking out at the water as another boat passes by in the background.
