The Randy Dandy



David Slijper nous livre pour le "NY Times" une série de photographies de mode inspirées par l'écrivain Gabriele d'Annunzio:

" He was a patriot and a poet, a dandy and a war hero. In turn-of-the-century Italy, no one embodied the cult of beauty and the love of action like Gabriele d’Annunzio. He was the incarnation of the Nietzschean Übermensch: narcissistic, powerful and seemingly invincible. Soldiers applauded his epic adventures; literati exalted his vast output; women couldn’t resist his voracious sexual appetite."
