Portraits of Ladies in Cardboard Outfits

Dame di Cartone (“Cardboard Ladies”) is a project by Swiss-Italian photographer Christian Tagliavini in which he creates portraits of women that mimic the look of historical paintings. The styles include 17th century, fifties, and cubism. Dame Di Cartone is currently on display until February 4, 2012 at Diemar / Noble Gallery in London as part of Tagliavini’s Cut Out & Keep solo exhibition.
