In the late 19th century, Prussian aristocrat Wilhelm von Gloeden settled in the Sicilian town of Taormina. His landscapes, genre photographs, portraits of townspeople, and nudes are pictures of yearning for a mythical land of ecstatic joy.

Photo critic Ulrich Pohlmann presents the firstever scholarly study of von Gloeden's work and explores his influence on the art world of the time.
