"Marii" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Ittetsu Matsuoka. He is a popular photographer who is in high demand for everything from fashion to commercials. Recently, his collaboration with "Ano", a female artist who is active in both the music and TV scenes, has been a hot topic. Many of his subjects are "women" and he does gravure shoots, but unlike the old days when he focused on men and was full of erotic sensibility, his photography is flat and delicate, and he excels in bringing out the multifaceted charms of his subjects. It is no wonder that he is a photographer who is supported by women even in today's world where harassment is so prevalent. This is Matsuoka's first book, published in 2018, and is a large work of over 500 pages with his wife Marie as the subject. It is a wonderful book that captures his wife, the city, and the landscapes from the same perspective, but also feels a casual and gentle love.
