A life-size nude by Lucian Freud of one of the world's most admired and
photographed women
will go on sale next year.
Lucian
Freud's Naked Portrait 2002 shows a pregnant Kate Moss draped over a bed, her
head resting lightly on her left arm. With rounded belly and a discreet little
fold of skin beneath her right breast, this is a magnificent, voluptuous,
flesh-and-blood Moss, hardly the wispy, ethereal creature
she often appears in
photographs. Her face recedes into the background and her calves are prominently
displayed;
this is Moss as few have
ever seen
her.
The painting will form one of the highlights of the Postwar and Contemporary Art
sale at Christie's in London next February, where it is expected to fetch £2.5
to £3.5m. The most paid for a Freud was $5.8m (£3.2m) in New York in 1998 for
Large Interior W11.
Pilar Ordovas, an associate director of Christie's,
said that the fame of the
sitter affected the estimate only "up to a point".
"The most important thing is how strong the painting is," she said.
Moss is, with the exception of the Queen, the best-known person Freud
has ever
painted. He tends to steer clear of depicting those who model for a
living. He once
said, "They've grown another skin because they've been looked at so
much."
Ms Ordovas said: "This is an important recent work by the artist, and it's very
interesting also for who the sitter is - Freud
hardly ever paints
professional models; the only other exception is Jerry Hall. In the
end, though, it's a wonderful painted portrait of a nude pregnant woman who
happens to be Kate Moss."
Freud did not finish the painting in time for his huge Tate retrospective in
2002, so the work has
barely been seen before. After
completion, it was sold to a private collector by the artist's New York dealer.
The British public will have a chance to see it for the first time at Christie's
in London from February 1.

Research
shows that mice live longer if they're half-starved.
There's no scientific proof
the regime works for humans - yet.
But around a thousand people, most of them
men,
have drastically cut back on their calorie intake
in the hope of resisting
disease and beating the ageing process.
