Madonna’s full-frontal nude photograph taken in 1979 which is published in the 1985 Playboy is up for auction. Christie’s auction house in New York, which will hold its sale Feb. 12, is expecting the picture to go for at least USD $10,000, the Associated Press reports.

Playboy published six photos from the shoot in 1985, though the one going on sale is "maybe the most explicit one," says Matthieu Humery, head of Christie’s photography department.
