La Dolce Vita: vibrant pictures of beautiful Italy of the 80s

Italy has a rich history. Everything flows, everything changes, but if in Italy there is something eternal and unchangeable, so is the idea of la dolce vita — the sweet life pleasures that the Director Federico Fellini brought to life on the screen with all its inherent sensuality and irony.

Photographer Charles Traub in his collection photos from Italy 80 years conducting thin parallel with the Fellini film, although in his pictures there is something unique, inherent only to him. Basically it is the omnipresence and the omnipotence of sex. In the photo there is nothing untoward, but in every picture there is a hint of feelings and their expression. Sex is not just kissing, naked body or the depth of the look — it can even be seen in color. Italy Charles Traub explodes colors of life. And that is why she is so sexually attractive.
