His innate sense of fashion, which has made him the most sought-after contemporary photographer today, has transformed many of his portraits into icons.

Format:Hardcover
If you catch this exhibit in London, you will be amazed at how many of the photos you will recognize not knowing who the photographer was. No wonder Princess Diana allowed only one man to catch her as she truly was, simply a woman. The fashion shots and ad campaigns are great. His celebrity photos are ok, but Testino is fashion and that is where his best work lie. In either b&w or color, these photos speak!!

This collection is superb and the size of the book is well chosen to display the images. It's a well rounded selection, including fashion, editorial, advertising, personal and celebrity. Reproduction of the images is high quality with good resolution and colour. Highly recommended to Testino fans.

Nice coffee table book
A nice coffee table type book, looking at Mario Trestino's body of work. I was inspired to pick it up after seeing his exhibit at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts.
