About the Item

Fresson print, inscribed ‘LAG 17033’ (verso), 29cm x 23cm (on view), 37cm x 30.5cm (sheet size), (48cm x 41cm framed). The photograph is framed to the line and crop indicated by the photographer on the print, behind museum quality UV non-reflective glass. (A Fresson print is a type of photographic printing, created in 1899, that has been passed down in the family for four generations. Still to this day, the Fresson family keeps some elements of the process a secret but make sure it stays alive. Located in the outskirts of Paris, their workshop is the only one in the world to produce such prints.) Albin-Guillot studied drawing and painting before becoming interested in photography. In 1925, she went on to have the first one-person exhibition at the Paris Autumn Salon. She also served as president of the French Societe des Artistes Photographes and in June 1928, was included in the first independent Salon of Photography in Paris. Published in 1932, she took a series of male nudes taken for Henry de Motherlant’s La Deesse Cypris. The strongly cropped images in which the male nudes fill the entire frame accompany the author’s text about sensuality. In 1933, she collaborated with the poet Paul Valery on Le Narcisse, again depicting erotic subject matter. Albin-Guillot remained passionate about photography throughout her life and strove to have the art form formally recognized in her lifetime.

    By Sante D´ Orazio
    Located in Vienna, AT
    All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. Gisele Bündchen is a German-Brasilian Model who started a successful career in the late 90s. She is most famous for her work with the lingerie brand Victoria's Secret. Sante D'Orazio photographed the blonde bombshell in 2005. The image shows her in black lingerie and heels, lying on a baroque-inspired ottoman chair in white and gold. The deep blue background adds a touch of old-school luxury. The model is lying on her side; her body turned away from the camera in an almost shy move. However, she is looking back over her shoulder, showing a seductive expression to the camera. The image is sexy yet elegant and luxurious. Kate Moss lounging cigarette in hand, Pamela Anderson captivating the camera with ruffled hair – star photographer Sante D’Orazio...
