A gorgeous Italian photographed by Vincenzo Galdi - I keep finding these wonderful portraits of captivating young men from a century ago, they are all gone now but that makes their pictures all the more poignant and beautiful.

A second stunning close-up portrait of the boy with the beautiful eyes by Plüschow - not the sort of photograph I would usually post here, with the emphatic religious symbolism overwhelming the scene (indeed it is titled The Christian Martyr), but look beyond the trappings of his saintly role and we see simply the beautiful face of a young man who lived over a century ago.

His portrait taken around 1900 by Guglielmo Plüschow, this young man’s sublimely beautiful strong-featured face is unforgettable. We have seen him several times before, and I have found more of his photographs to post in future, so he ought have a tag all his own; his name is sadly unknown, so I shall just collect his photographs under the boy with the beautiful eyes.

This Plüschow photograph appears oddly cropped, neither full artistic nude nor close enough to be a portrait - if anyone should own a more complete copy and wish to share it, please do send it in!

The quite simply perfectNino Cesarini, posing for Guglielmo Plüschow circa 1905, in one of the most exquisitely beautiful portraits of his era - indeed, a timeless beauty which still stands out as something breathtakingly lovely to this day.

A lean willowy model of incredibly handsome face poses for Guglielmo Plüschow, circa 1905, simple white background allowing his beauty to stand out with no need for embellishment.
