Adelia A ‘Maua‘ by Leonardo
The obvious and undisputed star of this Met Art erotic photo gallery is Adelia A, but she’s got a co-star here, playing a particularly impressive supporting role, and that’s color. The almost shocking blue of the cloudless sky, and the darker blue of the ocean, the bright pink of oleander flowers, and a frequently offered view of an entirely different shade of that most feminine of colors, give this gallery a vivid and eye-catching energy.
Leonardo has employed this location before, but I’m not complaining. The balustrades meeting at right angles and a column at their junction provide an interesting posing platform, and the bright white color of these architectural elements serves to heighten the intensity of the other colors.
I consider myself a fan of Adelia A. There are models with more emotional or expressive range, I’ll admit, and her hair may have strayed too far into the platinum range for those who prefer a more natural look, but I find her attitude and fit, compact body very pleasing. She’s quite free with that body, as well, and there are an assortment of particularly revealing explicit images to be savoured in “Maua.”
One curious aspect of the series is that Adelia A is totally nude from the first shot, but suddenly appears in a summery dress in #108 and remains dressed for the rest of the set. This isn’t a complaint so much as an observation, and it doesn’t diminish my enjoyment of the gallery. Favourites? I like the pose, composition, and colors in #042. Both shades of pink — flower and flesh — are pleasingly present in #085. And Leonardo’s deft lighting really brings out Adelia’s eyes in #107.
