Comte’s portraits are synonymous with the 1990s, the era when the notion of the Supermodel reached its zenith. The height of glamour, his portraits were amongst the most famous and vibrant of the innumerable images taken of these all-conquering women. Comte shot all the major names of the period, including Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Helena Christensen and Linda Evangelista. He would also create intense and complexly composed group shots that emphasise the artist ability to arrange colour and form with a painter’s eye.
