“Fondazione Gian Paolo Barbieri announces with deep sorrow the passing of the great master of photography,” the foundation he founded in 2016 announced.

Through his lens, Barbieri captured not only the elegance and allure of his models but also the soul of Italian fashion, elevating it to an art form, the foundation added.
