"Raquel is and always was a thoroughly decent girl - indeed she hated being seen as a sex object. She often chose difficult roles that challenged perceptions of her. She told me one day that she felt crucified by her image as a sex symbol and it gave me an idea. I dressed her in her fur bikini from One Million Years BC and put her on a cross. It was only afterwards - this is the late Sixties - that I realized we couldn't publish the image, because it would be seen as blasphemous, particularly in America. 'The negatives sat in a box in my studio for 30 years, unseen, until a friend who edited a big magazine found it and begged me to let him publish it in a retrospective of my work.'"
