I would like to share with you some of my recent findings: Wilhelm von Plüschow's vintage photographs, shot in Athens, Pompei and I guess Napoli. I think the photograph above was shot in Napoli... Could someone please confirm ?
The authentic vintage photographs I will post during the few next days are parts of a vintage album that was recently dismantled by a German dealer.
My friend Nicole Canet (
Au bonheur du Jour) bought some photographs from this album. I bought other ones from it.
Unfortunately, I don't know who was the owner of the original album, that is who bought these photographs from Plüschow himself... I just can guess he was a German man, it would have been interesting to know more about his life...
The photograph below was shot in the Dionysius Theater, down below Athens Acropolis. I don't know if von Plüschow visited Athens with his favorite Italian models (boy friends ?) or if these boys are Greek young men...
Perhaps someone among my erudite reader will clear up this point...
A last thing: you are free to download and repost these pics.
I bought them, they are parts of my personal collection, but I want to share them with you...
So I post them with a
