What will be the price of the Photography of Madame Carla Bruni-Sarkozy sold in an auction by Cristie's?
http://www.christies.com/LotFinder/lot_details.aspx?intObjectID=5054038
Background:>
The photography is a professional shoot in black and white, taken by Michel Comte in 1993 as part of a series of photos from a session for the Italian "Vogue" magazine. Michel Comte is not the seller, he himself was surprised the photo is going the be sold.
Mrs. Sarkozy, First Lady of France, former model, wears no cloths on the picture.
The auction's starting price is 4,000 USD. But some yellow press magazines already offered Comte up to £ 1,000,000 for similar celeb photos.
X = Selling price in USD
