Albert Watson, Photographer, Düsseldorf

Description

This striking black and white magazine cover features five models posed together in an editorial portrait captured in Düsseldorf. At the center stands a model in a voluminous white wedding dress and veil, adorned with dramatic skull face makeup. Flanking the central figure are four other models dressed in formal black suits, bow ties, and dark shirts, with stark skeleton face paint highlighting their features. Bold sans-serif typography reads '10 Voodoo' at the top and 'Numéro' at the bottom, crossed by thin, geometric line diagrams. The high-contrast monochromatic lighting emphasizes sharp facial contours, textures of the tulle gown, and the stark theatrical styling of the shoot.
