For U Repubblica, photographer Paolo Roversi captures athlete Jannik Sinner in a series of editorial portraits. The project leans into a painterly aesthetic, utilizing a low-key, chiaroscuro lighting technique to create deep shadows and atmospheric tonal contrast.
Styling by Anastasia Barbieri and Yvane Rocher focuses on sharp, tailored silhouettes—ranging from structured blazers and leather jackets to crisp, collared shirts—set against mottled, dark studio backdrops. The imagery maintains a consistent, moody register, with several shots captured on analogue film to emphasize a grainy, textured quality.
