[Erotica]. Mabillot, Fabrice. — Filles.

Biarritz, Contrejour, 2014, 128 pag., photography in colours and b/w and original photo-illustrated hardcover, quarto (fine copy). = Fabrice Mabillot works in Paris as the Artistic Director for several large lingerie brands ( Lou, Variance and Naf Naf ) and came to prominence when directing the new catalogue for the glamorous underwear manufacturer Sixty Eight, a task which made him famous.Within his creativity, he has developed a technique in his work, which combines clever aspects of modern technology with a classic aesthetic. Often working with models, chosen at random by him because he perceives them as unusual or innocently erotic, he captures their timeless beauty, in a manner that can be seen in both the photographs and the work of the painters of the Renaissance. The jacket of the book is a perfect example of this, an image comparable with the innate beauty of Vermeer's 'Girl with a Pearl Earring.This is a delightful book that presents an intimate portrait of the family of young women as their beauty is captured by the lens and the creative eyes of Monsieur Mabillot.
