Editorial Reviews Amazon.com Remember the Sirens, those nymphs who lured mariners to their deaths with sweet, irresistible singing? Marco Glaviano's nymphs lure not with song, but with sunlight on glistening (scantily clad) flesh, and poses that flaunt the female form in all its glory. The fashion photographer, perhaps best known for his Cindy Crawford and Paulina Porizkova swimsuit calendars, has assembled a medley of photographs spanning his 25-year career, many never before published. The gorgeous gala is highlighted with Glaviano's recollections.
"I could make a murderer look like an angel," Marco Glaviano writes, "so it's not the inside that interests me.... My aim simply is to preserve beautiful women." These seductive and erotic images celebrate the female form, draped and seminude. Sirens concludes with Glaviano's brief, chattily written account of his repressed Sicilian boyhood, classical art education, and rise to prominence as a fashion photographer for such magazines as Harper's Bazaar and Vogue.
