A decade ago, Mr. Gorbachev’s appearance in a Pizza Hut commercial was generally greeted as a low point in his career. In this ad the 76-year-old former Soviet leader appears in front of the Berlin Wall in an ad campaign for the French luxury label, along with Steffi Graf and her husband, Andre Agassi, and Catherine Deneuve, according to a statement yesterday from Vuitton, a division of the LVMH group, Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SA.

As always Annie Leibovitz does a great job with a composition. Her work is timeless and iconic.
