TYRA BANKS (b. 1973) · GISELE BÜNDCHEN (b. 1980) · HEIDI KLUM (b. 1973) · ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO (b. 1981) · ADRIANA LIMA (b. 1981)

A collectible photograph signed by five defining Victoria’s Secret models — Tyra Banks, Gisele Bündchen, Heidi Klum, Alessandra Ambrosio and Adriana Lima. The signatures appear directly on the group photograph, bringing together five names closely associated with one of the most recognisable images in fashion culture of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

The first Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was held in 1995 and subsequently developed into an international media phenomenon. Tyra Banks first walked for Victoria’s Secret in 1996, while Adriana Lima began her Victoria’s Secret career in 1998 and appeared in her first Fashion Show in 1999. Banks, Bündchen, Klum, Ambrosio and Lima became closely associated with the classic era of the Victoria’s Secret Angels.

The group photograph bearing five handwritten autographs is presented in an artist-designed presentation by Krilov Art. The vertical composition contrasts the photograph with deep black matting and incorporates a metal plaque inscribed “Five Angels — One Legend” together with the models’ names. A broad metallic-toned frame gives the work a restrained gallery character while maintaining focus on the photograph and signatures.

The authenticity of the autographs is supported by the certification markings displayed on the photograph. Bringing five signatures together within a single composition creates a compelling document of the Victoria’s Secret Angels era and gives the work particular significance for a collection devoted to fashion history and popular culture.
