“I read once about a woman who’s secret fantasy was to have an affair with an artist. She taught that he would really see her. He would see every curve, every line, every  indentation. And love them because they were part of the beauty that made her unique.”

I stumbled on this video some time ago. It probably is the ultimate fantasy a woman could have: being seen for the beauty that makes her unique. Then again, the Italian’s sense of sophistication which even spills in the alleys of their supermarkets might be quite a difficult experience to reproduce in a Kmart or an Auchan .

Mesdames, a vos paniers!  Messieurs, a vos crayons!

To view the video (for your eyes only as the video shows lots of nudity), please go to the Traumnovelle Facebook page.

Traumnovelle is a magazine of stories.

Intimate, sensual, surreal, and always cinematic stories, happening in places you could see everyday, sort of “I’ve been there before”.

Old school and deeply rooted in Italian contemporary life and in ’60 and ’70 movies imagery, Traumnovelle aims to offer a different vision of fashion photography, far away from the empty and glossy mainstream.
Traumnovelle happens out in the streets, into public and private places, where normal people live their lives and fashion photographers don’t.

Nothing has been retouched. Nothing has been electronically modified.
We photograph what we see.
