A woman's beauty is summer fragrances on a shoulder, a chiaroscuro glance, the memory of a stomach tautening on a forgotten night when a cloud suddenly veiled the moon. It is the eternal little girl who has never lost her fear of dusk and huddles the teddy bear which she will go on looking for, her whole life long, in men who will laugh, but not understand. Yet it is a fragile nape, a mouth wide with laughter, an arched back and the soft curves of buttocks" (Jeanloup Sieff, Vorwort). - Geringfügig berieben. Gutes Exemplar auf gutem Papier.
