He is mostly known for his pastoral nude studies of Sicilian boys, which usually featured props such as wreaths or amphoras suggesting a setting in the Greece or Italy of antiquity. From a modern standpoint, his work is commendable due to his controlled use of lighting as well as the often elegant poses of his models. Innovative use of photographic filters and special body makeup (a mixture of milk, olive oil, and glycerin) to disguise skin blemishes contribute to the artistic perfection of his works.); Prismatic Pictures; German, out of copyright

Land of Fire, a classical scene, with a view of the Vesuvius from Posillipo, Naples
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This sepia print by Wilhelm von Gloeden transports us to the enchanting Land of Fire. Taken in 1899, it captures a mesmerizing view of Mount Vesuvius from Posillipo in Naples, Italy. The composition exudes an air of timeless beauty and tranquility. Gloeden was renowned as one of the most significant gay visual artists before World War I. His work primarily focused on pastoral nude studies featuring Sicilian boys adorned with wreaths or amphoras that evoke ancient Greece or Italy. In this particular piece, however, he shifts his attention to the breathtaking landscape surrounding these young models. What sets Gloeden's photography apart is his meticulous use of lighting and elegant poses that lend an artistic flair to his subjects. He also employed innovative techniques such as photographic filters and special body makeup made from milk, olive oil, and glycerin to enhance the flawless appearance of his models' skin. As we gaze upon this image captured over a century ago, we are transported back in time to witness both nature's grandeur and Gloeden's mastery behind the lens. It serves as a testament to his ability not only to capture raw beauty but also infuse it with mythological undertones reminiscent of classical antiquity. This remarkable photograph is now part of a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its ethereal charm and evocative depiction of Naples' stunning landscapes.
