LADY LISA LYON. 1983.

N.p. (NYC): n.p. (Mapplethorpe/ Viking), n.d. (1983)

15.5 x 12.5cm (image is 11 x 11.5cm) b/w silver gelatine print – a b/w image of the bodybuilder and supposedly the only woman ever successfully to have had sex with Mapplethorpe (Patty Smith tried and failed to arouse him enough). Circulated as a promotional aid to the book publication and limitation unknown but effectively an approved Mapplethorpe small photographic edition. Some wear and a diagonal crease bottom right on cover – priced thus.
