Elio Luxardo - Bellezza Italiana

Stunning original photographic print by the great photographer Elio Luxardo (Sorocaba, August 1, 1908 – Milan, November 27, 1969).

Regarded as the photographer of the divas, Elio Luxardo (1908-1969) devoted his career to constructing perfect images: only bodies and faces, famous or unknown. Portraits with the merit of never being repetitive because they sprang from exuberant intuitions rather than from a predefined aesthetic project.

No scheme, no chronological order, but only juxtaposition based on harmony, treating photographic images like musical notes: thus the portraits of women signed by the great master of black and white in the thirties and forties were chosen. This exemplar is a clear example of it!
