About the Book

ELV (Norwegian for “river”) by Italian-born, Norway-based photographer Massimo Leardini is a meditative 104-page hardcover photobook showcasing his long-term collaborative work with a select group of models. Photographed during Scandinavian summers from 2014 to 2019, the images blend contorted human forms with primordial forests and riverbanks under elongated, tactile Nordic light. The book is presented as a 335×236 mm, 3/4 cloth-bound edition with foil-stamped boards and a dust jacket. ELV unfolds like a visual puzzle—an exploration of body, landscape, shadow, and memory through poetic, high-contrast imagery.

Leardini’s visual style is shaped by Nordic light, high-contrast black‑and‑white imagery, and sculptural compositions. He has published several acclaimed photobooks, including Scandinavian, Catarsi, Primitive, and In Between, working with international publishers and galleries.

We pack books to arrive in the condition described: protected corners, rigid backing, paper cushioning, and a sturdy outer package. Heavier or collectible editions receive an extra layer of protection. Any defects are documented on the product page—packing doesn’t hide condition, it reduces transit risk.

We ship from Germany, usually on the next business day after payment. Germany: typically 2–5 business days, EU: often 3–7 business days; international depends on destination and customs. Tracking is included for all services and is provided once the parcel is handed over to the carrier. During peak periods, transit times may extend. See the Shipping Policy.
