Quite some time ago I posted a different pose of this beautiful older model, and it garnered a ton of admiring comments. I only lamented that we didn't know who he was. Some speculated that he might have been a teacher in an art academy or even an elder artist. Thanks to my recent research on Paul Richer, however, I now can say that he was a professional model named Mr. Thuiller. The contact sheet like composite below is one of dozens done by Mr. Richer of models. Unfortunately, the quality of all those suffer from enlargement, but we can at least know this is our man.
I'm dedicating this post to our resident life model, David,
whose informed comments and friendship mean so much to me.
He could have modeled for Zeus-Dee Exx
ReplyDeleteYes, he could have.
