Memories of an unforgettable Summer

Max has asked us to realize two new videos containing some of the most beautiful pictures he did during his Summer stay in south France.
We are proud to announce the premiere of the first of these two videos on our YouTube channel for Sunday at 20:00 MEZ.
The video will feature photos of Belle, Bilitis, Kia, Lycil and Yuna together with Ennio Morricone’s masterpiece For love one can die..

What Max says:

This summer produced some of the most beautiful pictures. I really enjoyed the days with the girls and will forever remember the time with them. I hope you all enjoy the pictures as much as I do.
At the moment I am working on some exhibitions and I am already organizing some new photographic adventures with the girls.
We will go to Florence and meet some interesting people there. Among others the writer Olivier Mathieu and the well known photographer Corrado Pinci, former collaborator of the famous photographer Angelo Frontoni, who unfortunately died in the meantime. We all have a hang for romantic photography and I will also talk with Corrado about a future project together.
Until May I will photograph a few more girls and then go back to the south for a longer period of time, where the light and the landscape allow me to take the most beautiful pictures and inspire my creativity. Until then I wish you all much joy with my pictures and would be happy to welcome some of you at my exhibitions.

A journey through the Provence

Take a trip through the Provence with Max and beautiful Jeunes Filles Manouk and Bilitis.

Fields of Poppies, the mediterranean sea, beautiful gardens and the ruins of an old farmhouse among others are the places where Max shot the pictures presented in this video.

For the music Max chose Frédéric Chopin’s Nocturne, the No. 2 from Opus 27. A perfect choice as we think.

We recommend to watch this Video with a good glass of wine or a noble cigar.
Or in short: “Take your time and enjoy!”

For the first time ever!

Three photos of Manouk are now available!

This is your chance to get the No.1 of 300 prints!

We want to celebrate Manouks first appearance with the first two paragraphs of a beautiful poem

by French writer Olivier Mathieu!

La Coquillarde.

Chaque été toujours callipyge
De l’éternel présent vieux grec,
S’il se peut donc que quelqu’un pige,
Qu’il dédie une heure au bon bec,
Sein en proue et l’épaule ogive.
Mais dans l’été callipyge, est-ce
Qu’escarpins noirs, et dunes fesses,
De soleil lisérés fuseaux
Qui sont tant lisses d’or des peaux,
Genou à genou, cuisse à cuisse,
Et les peaux d’or qui tant sont lisses,
Genoux galets, jambes croisées,
Seront jamais chose oubliée?
Si tant de filles sont images,
La Coquillarde est la plus tendre
Des filles, si l’on veut m’entendre.
La Coquillarde est Reine mage
En exil d’aube et, mise au ban,
Elle sourit comme une enfant
Qui sait verser Soleil en nuit:
L’éternité dedans l’été
Qui à la paume point ne fuit.

 

 

Si demain vous savez me lire,
Petits culs ronds en tirelire
Ont des bouquets dans les cheveux,
Et des jupettes papillons.
Et de lumière certains anges
Ont à l’entrejambe un losange
Et applaudissant en cadence,
La sandale au pied se balance.
Les filles font la révérence
Et passent la langue à leurs lèvres,
Et leur culotte en transparence
Sait dessiner charmant triangle.
Cheveux au vent, robes d’été,
Jupes élastiques, fuseaux,
Cuisses oblongues, collants noirs,
Robes claires et courtes jupes,
Les cuisses sans fin des danseuses,
Jambes d’or, filles de Degas,
Ou d’antan germaines statues
Semblent d’un beau jardin les tiges,
Au Soleil, fleurs de jupes bleues
Et donnent tant et tant vertige…

Manouk and Bilitis

Jamais plus.

L’amour fut, l’amour est,
Au sein des arbres noirs,
Les tendres marronniers
Aux fleurs claires, le soir.
L’amour est, l’amour fou
Ce qui fuit, point ne fut.
Bleu, gris et blanc, le ciel
De pluie au grand soleil.
L’amour était, il fut,
Ne sera jamais plus.

Olivier Mathieu
