Vic by Douglas of Detroit
Vic Seipke and his pompadour have made numerous appearances here on the blog,
and this beautifully lighted number by Doug Juleff is a good addition to the lineup.
More often than not - in any discipline of any sort - one wonders if a contemporary fashion isn't just a ten-day wonder. There are exceptions, and I think with Seipke, at the time he was active, no one doubted that he was the real McCoy. One does not have to treat his physique within an historical context - other than Classical - as dated, but one can and perhaps ought to treat this photograph, thanks to Juleff's lighting, as a "period piece" of excellence. What a fantastic image.
Wunderschones Foto vom begnadeten Herrn Juleff. Perfekte mannliche Form. Herr Seipke ist einer der fantastischten Manner! Erinnert mich an klassische Skulpturen des antiken Greichenlands, die ich im Akropolismuseum in Athen und in den Vatikanischen Museen in Rom gesehen habe. -austriche

ReplyDeleteWe can only wonder about how many other outstanding photos were destroyed by the Detroit Police and Mr. Juleff's own father.
DeleteWe should all be thankful that this outstanding photo wasn't destroyed. Between them Doug Juleff and Vic Seipke created an image of true beauty.
DeleteOne of the most truly beautiful models of all time!
ReplyDeleteThe bodybuilder and the photographer created quite an image of the male form in all its splendour.

Yes, both the model and photographer were quite exceptional.
DeleteVic Seipke est comme bel objet de l'antiquite, un prince de l'epoque. Magnifique dans sa nudite. Douglas Juleff est la perfection en photographie.

This is, without doubt, one of Mr. Juleff's best photos of one of his best models.
