Untitled c. 1890

Wilhelm von Gloeden was a German photographer known for his atmospheric, often homoerotic images of young men, particularly in Sicily. This photo, "Untitled," c. 1890, showcases his distinctive style, capturing a youthful figure in a pensive pose. The subject's gaze, directed upwards, hints at a longing or contemplation, creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. The delicate fabric of the garment adds to the dreamy quality of the photograph, highlighting the beauty of the male form through a romantic and evocative lens.
