EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to the glamorous era of 1930s Milan. The subject of the portrait is none other than the enchanting Countess Magda Soderini, a woman who exudes elegance and sophistication from every pore. Dressed in her finest daytime attire, Countess Soderini's clothing choice showcases her impeccable taste in fashion. Her hat, adorned with delicate flowers and feathers, adds a touch of whimsy to her ensemble while perfectly framing her exquisite face. A headdress sits gracefully atop her head, hinting at a connection to military or religious affiliations. The countess's attention to detail is evident as she accessorizes with timeless pieces that accentuate her natural beauty. A necklace graces her neck, its intricate design adding an air of regality. Delicate earrings dangle gently from her ears, catching the light and illuminating her features. And on one hand rests a stunning ring that undoubtedly holds sentimental value. As our gaze lingers on this mesmerizing portrait, we cannot help but notice the countess holding a cigarette delicately between two fingers—a symbol of sophistication and rebellion during those times. Pasta Fernando's masterful composition captures not only Countess Soderini's physical beauty but also hints at the nobility that lies within. His expert use of lighting creates shadows that enhance both depth and mystery in this remarkable piece. This print serves as a testament to an era long gone yet forever cherished—an era where style was paramount and individuals like Countess Magda Soderini effortlessly commanded attention wherever they went.
