PRINTED MEMORIES

Photographic portrait by SETTIMIO BENDEDUSI A2 format (59 x 42 cm), print on Fine Art paper, high quality black wooden frame

"We are not here to simply make you beautiful, but we presume to be here to show you who you are [...] unique in your truth, beauty and authenticity. Everyone is the best version of themselves."

In an era where everything is digital and nothing is more tangible and authentic, photography returns to its simplest and noblest origin: portraits printed on paper. The creator of the project is one of the greatest Italian photographers, Settimio Benedusi. He who has immortalized heads of state, celebrities and top models throughout his career has decided to dedicate himself to a new challenge: photographing ordinary people. People who pass in front of his lens are often moved by this timeless magic. An unmissable event!

It is possible to book (according to Settimio Bendusi's availability) and treat yourself to this special moment, perhaps accompanied by your loved ones.

The experience must be carried out within 1 year from the date of award according to the availability of Settimio Benedusi and the successful bidder of the auction.
