A luminous example of Liberty style in Palermo, Villa Virginia was built between 1902 and 1908. This is the Villa that inspired Eleonora Orlando to depict young women, and ultimately use it as a setting for her eponymous work. Their innocent yet thriving sexuality and self-realization are at the center of each portrait, making this series a careful study of those obliterated changes that take place in the life of a young woman.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
