“Looking at a photograph by Letizia Le Fur is like seeing colours for the first time.” This observation reflects the French artist’s early training as a painter, before discovering the enchantment of photography. In this series of images, she portrays the Caruso, a luxury hotel on the Amalfi Coast in southern Italy. Le Fur wields the camera like a paintbrush, capturing the hotel’s architecture against the glowing hills and towering cliffs of this iconic stretch of coastline, in turn reinforcing the place’s dreamlike, timeless aspect. Almost like paintings, Le Fur’s photographs become perfect illustrations of what she calls the “omnipresent sun” that drenches the 11th-century walls and cliffside gardens.
