The first book by fashion photographer Paolo Roversi, *Nudi* brings together forty-nine portraits of models who agreed to pose nude. The book is exemplary in its restraint, bordering on minimalism, as if the unveiling of the bodies demanded contemplation. By choosing the idea of a confrontation rather than a Pirelli calendar-style striptease effect, Roversi offers his young models a new way of life. Suddenly transformed back into mere mortals, with nothing to sell—neither clothing nor products—here they are, freely facing the camera, sometimes using their hands or hair to cover their breasts or genitals. Or standing proudly, legs apart, as if they wanted to put an end to their past as paragons of beauty.
