Nelly's Faces of Crete - trilingual edition

Nelli Soujioulzoglou, also known as Nelly's, visited Crete for the first time in 1927. By that time she had made herself famous in Athens for her photos of traditional neighborhoods, antiquities and portraits and she had been acclaimed all over the world for the impressive nude photos of a ballerina in Acropolis.

In Crete Nelly's acquainted with a society of structure closely resembling an ancient one, only slightly affected in the course of time. She is startled and records what she sees. The material shown in this book depicts through a series of exquisite photographs - created with a direct approach in genuine surroundings - the aspects of a society which has by now been radically transformed.
