SANTE D'ORAZIO (b.1956)

D'Orazio was granted privileged access to celebrated model Stephanie Seymour to make a series of nude studies. A portfolio was published as a cover and lead-feature coup by Playboy, February 1993, following the magazine's feature on Cindy Crawford by Herb Ritts. These shoots, from which this is an unpublished image, were instrumental in dramatically raising the subjects' status as contemporary icons.
