This photograph is from a series of the model Glazyrina with a mirror. Here she looks at her own reflection, her body poised in a spare, yet provocative style. In this intimate picture and the others in the series, Kozlovskiy takes motifs from historic erotica, specifically that of a woman at her toilette and gives it a contemporary feel. About the Artist Known for his exquisite vision of the erotic feminine form, self-taught Russian photographer Arkadiy Kozlovskiy (b. 1964, Germany − d. 2014, Russia) came to his art late in life. Nevertheless, within a short span of merely three years he would become highly regarded, and sought after for his enchanting portraits of desire, embodied in pictures of sumptuously striking nudes.
