Guglielmo Pluschow (1852-1930), albumin photos depicting nude woman. hallmarked on the back Guglielmo Pluschow Rome. Cm 22x16 "Photographer, in the early 70s he moved to Naples where he changed his name to William and where he began his activities devoted to the study of nudes. He opened a studio in via Mergellina, second flight of Posillipo, No 55, as shown by the stamps placed on his photos. He stayed on Capri and also had many social contacts with Wilhelm von Gloeden. In 1890 he opened a studio in Rome, again witnessed by the presence of the stamps, but his Italian experience ended in 1910 when he was forced to return to Berlin after the sentencing receipt for procuring homosexual. Just in the years prior to his return to Germany he thinks he converted to landscape photos in hopes of being able to stay in Italy, but this production was not particularly successful. The reputation of the photographer over time has been lost as a result of the name of his cousin dell'imporsi Von Gloeden. But, despite this, in recent years his artistic personality has been rediscovered thanks largely to the immediacy and strength that give off his photos. He never gave up to an excess of decoration and tinsel but rather chose to proceed along the path of openness easily slipping into the vulgar and pornographic, to the standards of the time.
