About the model & session
Aired on Valentines day, this session of dual poses from the most stylish life modelling couple around was inspired by the August Rodin statue 'The Kiss', with poses which take their cues from the entangled intimacy of the well sculpture. Despite its romantic associations Rodin's international renowned work depicts a tender moment between the adulterous lovers Paolo Malatesta and Francesca da Rimini, who were later murdered by Francesca’s outraged husband. Appearing in Dante’s Inferno, their passions developed as they read the story of Lancelot and Guinevere together; the book can just be seen in Paolo’s hand as they embrace. You can read a little more about The Kiss HERE.
