The Roman Spring of Roberto Chiovitti (Photos)

The historic culture, the centuries of beautiful art, the traffic, the noise — Rome is intoxicating. But in the spring, to truly enjoy Italy, one must go to the countryside. Perhaps with a good friend. Enjoy the sun, the fragrances, the ruins. Here photographer Roberto Chiovitti contrasts the perfect form of Marco Pinotti with the relics of a previous civilization as well as the beauty of nature itself.

Chiovitti has always been fascinated with images, but he didn't expect that photography would become his life. He depicts actors, actresses, and athletes for Italian magazines such as Vanity Fair, For Men Magazine, SportWeek, Chi, Men's Health, and others. In 2012 his first solo book was published: Disclosed Desires (Bruno Gmünder Verlag).
