Acne Paper Aureus 2025

Description

This striking monochrome image from the Aureus project for Acne Paper, captured by photographer Julien Martinez Leclerc with creative direction by Thomas Persson, portrays a theatrical scene amidst ancient stone ruins. In the foreground, a prominent figure dressed in a dark black coat and a wide-brimmed hat playfully contorts their face with their hands. Behind them on the uneven stone path, two women in dark attire walk through the historical landscape under an open, cloudy sky. The high-contrast black-and-white treatment heightens the dramatic textures of the weathered stone path and traditional garments, emphasizing an evocative narrative style.
