Kate Moss has Redecorated her Home with British Artwork

Magnus Gjoen's ‘I Thought We’d Only Meet In Death’

With her exquisite taste and healthy bank balance, renowned supermodel Kate Moss has decided to take the plunge in redecorating her home – and starting a little art collection whilst she’s at it. One of the pieces the 44-year old purchased was ‘I Thought We’d Only Meet In Death’ created by one of the UK’s leading contemporary artists of the moment, Magnus Gjoen.

 “Gjoen is a great investment piece. In the last twelve months we have had an abundance of enquires for his works, the value of his paintings are increasing every year.” – Leontia Reilly, owner and curator at Leontia Galleries.
