LONDON – Three photographs of Kate Moss taken by David Ross in October 1988 will be up for auction at the end of the month and are expected to fetch between £800-£1,200 each ($1,270-$1,580). Bloomsbury Auction is selling the signed prints as a part of its photography sale on November 23. The photos were taken when the model was 14 years old.

“Kate was a cool character. She seemed like a tough or resilient typical teenager, comfortably fronting me up, perhaps covering up her nerves,” Ross said. “I suppose what was refreshing was that she was honest. She wasn't trying to prove anything or act above her station. She didn't try to adopt a model attitude of self-absorption and superiority, which at the time was becoming public via media sensation. She was untarnished. A blank canvas, as other writers have put it.”

Since her early modeling years, Moss has been an enigma. She rarely speaks to the press but has continued to fascinate the fashion world, launching trends, designing capsule collections, and living a heady lifestyle that has been well documented. The supermodel has only recently started giving interviews with the launch of a new book that details her 25-year career. 

While the images at Bloomsbury are estimated to bring in £800-£1,200, there is a strong possibility that they will sell for more. In 2011, an image of Moss from 1993 sold for $25,000. At 38, she is still one of the most coveted models in the world and continues to land top covers such as Vogue and W. Last week, the Evening Standard listed her as the most influential Londoner in fashion.
