Paolo Roversi introduces the reader to his long awaited series of nudes.

Truly a one of a kind collectible! Paolo Roversi masterfully captures a perfect mix of sensuality and innocence with these portraits, which have a wonderful sketch-like quality. Roversi's technique places the emphasis on the face and hair, including pubic, while washing out the rest of the body to give his subjects an ethereal, ghostly quality. The list of models reads like a who's who of the current fashion runway set, including Kate Moss, Milla Jovovich, Amber Valletta, Shalom Harlow, Trish Goff, Stella Tennant, Guinevere Van Seenus, Kristen McMenamy, Michelle Hicks, Angela Lindvall and Karen Elson. Thus we have women who made a name for themselves by wearing clothes presented in ultimate contrast with astonishing results. Roversi and his models should be proud of what they have accomplished with "Nudi." Roversi, Paolo (1947) After meeting the photographer Peter Knapp, in Italy, Paolo Roversi settles in Paris and becomes a renown photographer. Soon, his poetic and mysterious images that reinvent the use of colors and black and white, seduce such conceptual designers as Yohji Yamamoto and Rei Kawabuko alongside major houses like Christian Dior. He produces elegant and classical images that diffuse a delicate and graceful depiction of femininity. Evoking pioneering photographies of the 19th century with his daguerreotype-like misty pictures, Paolo Roversi also invokes the stunning mosaics of his native city, Ravenna, with his static portraits. A specialist of the Polaroid - he was nicknamed ‘Paoloroid’ - captures fashion like a portraitist: ‘Portraiture is what I prefer in photography. I am a portraitist. I engage with fashion photography as a portraitist…It is the atmosphere, the aura of the portrait that brings life to the clothing.’ More than a portraitist, Paolo Roversi is surely a soul catcher, the enigmatic accomplice of ghosts.
