Additional Details: This striking image by Robert Mapplethorpe, titled Untitled, 1985, is drawn from a 1991 box set published by teNeues Publishing Company and printed in Germany. In this portrait, the model holds an orange object—possibly a fruit—in front of his mouth, creating a bold visual contrast and highlighting the interplay of form, shadow, and gesture. The composition exemplifies Mapplethorpe’s mastery of photographic depth and his talent for transforming simple elements into visually compelling symbols. Presented in a black wood frame with a front profile of 1 inch and a side profile of 3/4 inch, and mounted behind a 4-inch mat, the image is elevated into a refined display piece, accentuating the sculptural precision and minimalist elegance that define Mapplethorpe’s iconic aesthetic.
