Naked is timeless. Women have been posing unadorned for art for centuries. And there is something about this collection of nude portraits that feel unequivocally French – the wallpaper, the slope of her breast, the lighting. There is a softness to the images as the light leaks in, a precision to every picture taken. You can feel the care in each of them.

The model, Dovile, and photographer, International Decoy, crafted every shot like a painting – the right light, the angle, the way her hands rest on one another are all artfully designed. 25 frames shot on a medium format camera over a five hour period at a small hotel in the 8th Arrondissement of Paris. No makeup artist, no stylist, no one else in the room. The result is a kind of timeless image that might be drawn from a long forgotten top drawer.
