Thandie Newton For Louis Vuitton's Double Exposure Series




I'm loving the vintage feel of these photos of Thandie Newton for Louis Vuitton's Double Exposure series because they look just like many of the photos that we have in our homes of our ancestors. The project, which debuted with artist Sam Taylor Wood earlier this year, creates two "portraits" of the sitter: one a literal portrait, using a 19th Century photographic technique called the collodion wet plate process; and the other a portrait of the subject's inner self, in a film where the sitter reveals their most treasured possessions and the story behind them.
