Slim Aarons: La Dolce Vita (Getty Images)

Bought this book as a gift for a client and they loved it. Slim Aarons is an amazing photographer and this book captures the beauty of a glamorous time gone by. Would definitely recommend it for a coffee table book or gift!

Slim Aarons: La Dolce Vita is an absolute treasure! This book captures some of Italy’s most breathtaking landscapes through the lens of Slim Aarons, with each photo telling a story of beauty, elegance, and timeless charm. The imagery is top-notch, transporting you straight into Italy’s iconic scenery and lifestyle. It’s a must-have for anyone who appreciates photography or Italian landscapes—truly a stunning addition to any coffee table or photography collection!

We assumed that as the fourth book in a series of compilations of Slim Aarons's photographs of his years living La Dolce Vita, the material would begin to run a little thin. It doesn't. What a treasure trove he seems to have built during his lifetime of photography. The fact that this book is solely about Italy, which was his preferred home away from home, no doubt helps. Beautiful people, beautiful locations, exquisite photography. And I'm sure I'm not the only guy who will appreciate the additional, more revealing photo of Catherine Wilkes, perhaps St. Louis' most beautiful export. Regarding another reviewer's comments: The book presents photographs "from the period", beautifully reproduced on high quality paper, just as with the prior Aarons books, leading me to believe that the negative reviewer is confusing this book with another publication. Bottom line: if you liked his other three books, as we did, you are likely to enjoy this one just as much. Same format, same size, every bit as enjoyable.

I enjoy the pictures. Pics of bougie people living their best life. Gives me good vibes. Colors are nice and vibrant with good quality pics. The paper cover is beautiful but so is the hardcover underneath the paper cover.

It's a Slim Aarons book that should tell you everything. The book arrived quickly and in perfect condition.

Well presented and beautifully photographed. Captures moments in time…

This is the most gorgeous book I’ve ever seen. It is worth every sent. It is big and looks beautiful on a side table or coffee table. I absolutely love it so much!

Chris Sweet, you've done a fabulous job capturing my father's love of Italy! I always think i've seen most of the photos my dad took, but there are lots in here i've never seen...especially some of the older B&W ones. Of course i'm biased, but the photos are spectacular. The introduction is rich in information about the time my dad spent in Italy and the captions are deep. This is a book my dad would have been so excited to show off. Love it!

Muy buen libro, todo correcto

Bello molto bello molto bello molto bello molto bello molto bello molto bello molto bello molto bello molto bello molto ciao buona sera il titolo

Absolutely gorgeous hardcover book. Delivered with care. Thank you

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. The commentary and being able to revisit places I enjoyed in Italy all over again.

bin enttäuscht, die Fotos die man von Slim Aarons kennt, findet man dort nicht, wahrscheinlich der Rest der Sammlung bzw. Nachlass wurde dort in ein Buch gepackt, Druckqualität fand ich auch mäßig.
