Three images by the leading American fashion photographer Lillian Bassman, who is
attracting attention following an exhibition at Wapping Project Bankside, and a
forthcoming show at Paul Smith, will also be on sale. The photographs include Jean
Shrimpton, 1955 (estimate £3,000 – 5,000); Nylon: A Natural Traveller, Margie Cato
(estimate £2,000 – 3,000), which was taken for Harper’s Bazaar; and Park Avenue
Woman, Mary Jane Russell (estimate £2,000 – 3,000).
The top lot is a portrait by the internationally renowned German photographer Thomas
Ruff: Portrat (V.Lieberman), 1998. With a pre-sale estimate of £25,000 – 35,000, the
portrait is an excellent example of the precise, tonally exact imagery that Ruff,
and his fellow students under Bernd Becher, are famous for.
Other important lots include Thomas Struth’s The Ma Family, Shanghai, 1996 (estimate
£12,000 – 18,000); Rene Burri’s well-known Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, 1960 (estimate
£4,000 – 6,000) – notable here for its unusually large size, rarely seen at auction;
and Femme Dans la Baignoire, 2003 (£7,000 – 9,000) by leading Finnish photographer
Elina Brotherus.
Head of the Photography Department at Bonhams, Jocelyn Phillips, comments:
“Following on from our collaboration with David Bailey earlier this year, the new
department is excited to present its first auction at Bonhams London. We are
delighted to be offering a broad range of photographic imagery – from the 19th
century to the present day – at a wide and accessible range of prices.”

New York Photo Awards 2010
2010 NEW YORK PHOTO AWARDS DETAILS: hurry! Festival Initiates Interim Awards In their first two years, the New York Photo Awards have been considerably and increasingly successful, surpassing New York Photo Festival organizers¹ expectations for quality, reach and number of submissions. NYPH`10 is proud to announce details of the New York Photo Awards 2010, including the jury, awards ceremony, prizes and a new initiative: Interim Awards that are being given in the time leading up to this year¹s festival. The mission of the New York Photo Awards is to give visual artists the opportunity to reach key decision makers in the photographic community as well as the editorial, fine art, and commercial worlds, and to honor talented photographers from all over the world whose exceptional work breaks new ground visually, intellectually and aesthetically. Submissions (which are open this year until April 30) are evaluated by an internationally diverse jury of photography, fine art, publishing and advertising luminaries. This year¹s jury, chaired by powerHouse Books CEO and New York Photo Festival co-founder Daniel Power, includes Patrick Amsellem, Associate Curator of Photography, Brooklyn Museum; Anthony Bannon, Director, George Eastman House, International Museum of Photography and Film; Louise Clements, Senior Curator/Director, Format International Photography Festival; Sean Corcoran, Curator of Prints and Photographs, Museum of the City of New York; Christoph Gamper, VP Imaging Division, Datacolor, Italy; Kathy Grayson, Gallery Director, Deitch Projects; Leah Hamilton, Senior Creative Art Producer & Project Manager, Spike DDB; Walter Keller, Founder, Walter Keller Gallery, and Director, Scalo Publishing House; Irene Kromhout, Festival Coordinator, Noorderlicht International Photofestival; Josette Lata, Freelance Art Buyer; Laura Serani, Artistic Director, Rencontres de Bamako, Mali, Africa; and Lorna-Mary Webb, Company Manager, Rhubarb Rhubarb, Birmingham, UK. The New York Photo Awards ceremony will return to St. Ann¹s Warehouse on Friday, May 14 at 8:30 P.M. The work of the Award Winners and Honorable Mentions will be presented on the big screen before an audience of industry luminaries. Twelve major awards will be publicly presented, and 24 artists will receive Honorable Mention certificates. Winners¹ work will be showcased not only at the New York Photo Awards ceremony and in a feature presentation on the New York Photo Festival website, but also in a group exhibition during next year¹s edition of the New York Photo Festival. This year, all winners will receive prizes worth over $1,000: a Canon S90 camera, courtesy of B&H, and a Spyder 3 Studio, courtesy of Datacolor. All winning entries will also be automatically eligible for inclusion in the New York Photo Awards 2010 Annual, available later this year via the New York Photo Festival website and select bookstores everywhere. In advance of the New York Photo Awards 2010, three Interim Awards winners are being chosen, each by a different guest judge. Daniel Power selected the first winner, Samantha Goldfien, on March 22. The second and third Interim Winners will be announced on April 15 and April 30. Each Interim Award winner receive a $250 B&H gift card and a feature presentation on the New York Photo Festival website.
