With Paris Naked, French photographer Veronique Vial leads us in the footsteps of Brassai through Paris at night with a beautiful nude female model at her side. Her collection of stunning erotic photographs has two subjects: the beautiful girl evoking erotic visions, dreams, and sensations, and the city of Paris at night with the strong contrast of dark shadows and imperial illuminations. Also, the contrast between architecture in stone and the flesh of the body creates a mesmerizing play between voyeurism and exhibitionism. The magical city of Paris forms an adequate stage for the erotic fantasies in the eyes of the beholder
