London 'Queen of Pop' Madonna's naked photographs, taken while the superstar was a struggling 20-year-old model, will go on display in London.

The pop icon had posed for New York photographer Martin H M Schreiber for just USD 30 and after she became famous Schreiber sold the pictures to Playboy magazine who published the images in 1988, for several millions.

The pictures were taken in 1979 when the 'Like A Virgin' star was a brunette and the striking similarity to her 12-year-old daughter Lourdes has often been commented upon.

The photographs will go on display in London at Impure Art, the UK's only erotic art gallery from 2nd July and the black and white shots are likely to sell for some big bucks, reported Telegraph online.

"When you have wonderful nude photos of a beautiful young woman, taken by a great photographer and she happens to be a global icon, it's a no brainer. With such a fantastic central London venue and with Madonna herself being in town, we are expecting huge interest," Jamie McCartney said.
