Romances d’Été Part II

 

 

Have a lot of pleasure with Max Stolzenberg’s romantic photography.

Ines

We invite you to see the first pictures of Ines whose beauty was perpetuated on celluloid by Max just a few days ago.
This is also your chance to get the number one of these, as we think, very beautiful pictures.

The first real rays of sunshine shone through the windows in Max’s villa.
Ines had already arrived early in the morning and from now on the clicking of Max’s old Minolta SRT-101 would be heard throughout the house.

Ines and Bilitis lying on the bed, reading in Olivier Mathieu’s novel “A Firenze muore un’estate”
The unbelievably soft light at this morning made the picture just look like a painting from centuries ago!
We invite you to read Olivier Mathieu’s novels yourself, especially his new work “Les Enfants des Aprems”.
You can get his books via his homepage.

Max is a great connoisseur and fan of classical painting.
So it is no wonder that Bilitis can be seen here in a pose familiar from Renaissance nudes.

All pictures from Max’s last shooting can be bought directly from us.
For prices and different sizes go to the shop.
You can also directly write to Bilitis who will help you through the process of ordering a picture from us.

We wish you a lot of fun with the pictures of Ines.
Just click on one of the images and enjoy!



All pictures are available in different sizes and strictly limited to 300 copies.
Each picture is autographed by the Max Stolzenberg himself, titled and dry stamped to ensure originality.

Some of the pictures on this site have never been published before and it might still be possible to get hold of the number 1 of 300 prints.

We also highly recommend to visit our atelier. Here you can convince yourself of the high quality, painting like, pictures and the wonderful workmanship of our limited prints.

Max uses only analog cameras and genuine film for his artwork!

Summer Vibes

 

 

As the weather is still too cold for this time of the year we decided to raise the temperatures with some new, red hot pictures.

There is a lot going on this year and Max is already preparing to welcome the most beautiful Jeune Filles in France.

But for now we leave you alone with these new pictures and a beautiful poem written by Olivier Mathieu.

Les amours ont vieilli et les amis sont morts,
Trop nombreux les amours où manqua tout amour
Mais voilà que surgit au fond de ma mémoire
L’image des sommeils au temps de mon enfance,
Le reste ne fut rien, dans les bras de ma mère.
Et défilent mes morts au revers des nuages
Et se posent sur moi les yeux irrésistibles
Et de larmes noyés en un pacte échangé.
C’est les yeux de mon chien, c’est les yeux de mes maîtres,
La nuit était profonde et lourd le conformisme
Et j’ai feint de trahir pour ne jamais trahir.
J’entends encor sonner le concert du triangle
Et c’est l’odeur des foins, l’acier brille au soleil,
C’est les yeux des enfants morts à l’âge de l’ange.
Que m’absolvent mes morts, que le ciel pleure en pluie,
Que les instants d’antan au bel arc-en-ciel brillent.
L’enfance se fait proche, j’en reviens au principe.
Il sera toujours bref, le temps des jupes courtes.
Je voudrais pas crever avant l’été prochain.

An Evening At The Etang

 

Once again we celebrate the anniversary of the death of photographer David Hamilton, to whom Max owes much.

Max used to regularly show his pictures to the grand master of light and both worked on new methods to improve the style of  romantic photography.

The following pictures have been shot in the beautiful South of France on real genuine film, the same way and with the same camera David used in the 1970’s.

Our special thanks go to Bilits, Stella and Yuna, who where fantastic models with the perfect feeling for the scene.

The text and poem below the pictures were provided by Olivier Mathieu.

They match perfectly with the pictures of Max and honour David Hamilton

David Hamilton starb am 25. November 2016. Wir werden Ihn nicht vergessen. Er war der große Meister des größten Geheimnisses, des weiblichen Geheimnisses. Hier ist ein Gedicht für David Hamilton und über das weibliche Mysterium.

David Hamilton est mort le 25 novembre 2016. Nous sommes quelques-uns à ne pas l’oublier. Il fut le grand maître du plus grand des mystères, le mystère féminin. Voici un poème pour David Hamilton et sur le mystère féminin.

David Hamilton died on November 25, 2016. We will not forget him. He was the great master of the greatest of mysteries, the feminine mystery. Here is a poem for David Hamilton and about the feminine mystery.

David Hamilton è morto il 25 novembre 2016. Alcuni di noi non lo dimenticano. Era il grande maestro del più grande dei misteri, il mistero femminile. Ecco una poesia per David Hamilton e sul mistero femminile.

Le mystère, infini, cède ou échappe en l’une

Ou l’autre, et se reforme: ainsi, quête d’exil.

Qu’il s’éloigne ou se donne au soleil, à la lune,

C’était moi, le mystère: aussi m’en souvient-il.

Telle fut ma recherche: amoureux des prisons,

Amant de liberté, poète ivre d’images,

Funambule fendant l’orage outre horizon

Et la boucle est bouclée, à la fin le naufrage.

Peut-être n’y eut-il ici aucun mystère

Autre que celui peint derrière mes paupières.

Au sein du temps donné, combien de moments ronds?

Combien de leurs échos chanteront les colombes?

Combien gésiront morts, étendus sous leurs tombes?

Sous leurs tombes, combien étendus gésiront?

 

Olivier Mathieu, blog en défense de David Hamilton:

 

The mystery, infinite, gives way or escapes in one of them.

Or the other, and reformed: thus, a quest for exile.

Whether he moves away or gives himself to the sun, to the moon,

I was the mystery: that’s why I remember it.

That was my search: prison lovers,

Lover of freedom, poet drunk with images,

Tightrope walker splitting the thunderstorm beyond the horizon

And the loop is closed, in the end the shipwreck.

Perhaps there was no mystery here.

Other than the one painted behind my eyelids.

Within a given time, how many round moments?

How many of their echoes will the doves sing?

How many will lie dead under their graves?
