IMPORTANT NOTE: I really cannot tell you very much about this magazine & issue because it's all an Italian, and this particular title - Babilonia Speciale Foto -- pretty much is entirely photos with no information of year or anything. What information I have is that which I have researched. And that information has been conflicting....!! It appears the photographer was Orion Delain, who used the pseudonym Andros , and he is a French "globe-trotter" photographer recognized for his work that combines male eroticism , portraiture, and landscapes. His work in this issue is titled " L'Occhio di Andros" (The Eye of Andros). This series often features models in natural or Mediterranean-inspired settings, such as the Greek island of Andros. His photography is characterized by a blend of fine art and travel imagery, often captured in locations like the Maghreb, India, the Himalayas, and the Pacific Islands. He frequently explores themes of male beauty, often integrating his subjects with architecture and nature. SOLD FOR EDUCATIONAL/ HISTORIC PURPOSES ONLY!!
