For years and years, no one knew who was he. This photo was taken on June 18th., 1965, in Phouc Vinh, Vietnam, by the photojournalist Horst Faas. But the soldier's name was not revealed by his family until 2010. Larry Wayne Chaffin, although he returned home, leaving the hell of war behind, soon began to feel ill, possibly as a result of the use of Agent Orange, and died at the age of 39, in 1985. He deserves to be remembered..

Recently, I have found these authentic and amazing male portraits dated from the 19th century, at the beginning of the Photography art. Now I just only need to find a time machine ... ;-)

Written with light: Rudolph.

Rudolph Valentino (1895-1926) was an Italian actor, born in Castellaneta (Apulia, Italy). In 1913, Rodolfo Guglielmi (real name) moved to New York, where he worked as gardener, waiter, dancer and gigolo. Shortly later, he started a successful acting carreer in Hollywood. He was the first sex symbol of Cinema history, becoming the eternal archetype of the Latin lover.

"The mortal beauty claims the eternity"

(Damaso Alonso, Spanish poet)
