  2. Wunderschön komponiertes Foto.
    Von Gloedens ideal Bild eines Mannes der griechisch-römischen Zeit. (“)

  3. Une odalisque mâle endormie de Taormina.
    Gloeden and Pluschow would have been better served if they kept to young men as nude subjects instead of children.
    Galdi was worse with his pornographic images that got them all in trouble with Italian authorities. Much like the charlatan satanist Aleister Crowley and his notorious Thelema Abbey in later years.

  4. Love the urn! First, I thought it was authentic Greek, but it's still cool......I must go to Taormina to retrieve it!

  5. + Come in satiro a riposo.
    Gloeden voleva catturare l’essenza dell’antichità a Taormina.
