This is 1880s Gabriele D'Annunzio sunbathing in Francavilla al Mare, Abruzzo, Italy. The AKG Archive didn't list the photographer's name, but considering the source, it was probably German.
There were several German photographers active in Italy at the time.
Many thanks to Larry K. for providing today's photos!
Very cool series, Jerry. Thanks!
