Taken at a previous Cannes film festival - between 1958-1962, this photo perfectly captures that late 50s-early 60s look. This is the look we guys aspired to then, the clean cut, striped shirt look - preppy I suppose. Love the airline bag! I had one too though did not fly until later ...This is one of the great photographs [of an Italian model Giancarlo] by John S. Barrington, a pioneer of nude male photography since the '40s through to the '90s (before the age of gay liberation and the new permissiveness and the internet...) and is the subject of a fascinating book "PHYSIQUE The Life of John S Barrington" by Rupert Smith, published by Serpent's Tail. Perfect social history - great pictures too including the young Alain Delon, also captured by Barrington at Cannes in 1958; and life during wartime was a lot of fun too in the London blitz for those who seized the moment!
