NUDE PHOTO OF THE FRENCH FIRST LADY UP FOR AUCTION AT CHRISTIE'S

[Telegraph]

A nude photo of the French First Lady Carla Bruni has been put up for auction at Christie's New York, just hours ahead of her and her husband President Nicolas Sarkozy's state visit to Britain, the Telegraph reports.

The photo of Carla Bruni is expected to bring around £2,000 at auction next month
The image, by photographer Michel Comte, shows Bruni facing the camera wearing no more than a thoughtful expression.

The first couple are to arrive in the UK on Wednesday for the start of their two-day state visit, and will be meeting the Queen and the Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, the Telegraph says.

Mr Sarkozy has faced criticism that his flashy, Rolex-wearing image belies a lack of substance, and he had hoped that the visit would add some much-needed gravitas to his public persona.
