TIMELESS BEAUTY

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is this book?

“Alya by Vassilis Pitoulis” is a visual journey created over three years —
through silence, movement, landscapes, moods, and moments.
Over 150 black & white photographs, captured in Greece, Italy, and Egypt.
No filters. No algorithms. Just presence.

Have these photos been published online before?

Short answer: No.
Long answer: Still no — not on Instagram, not on websites, not “somewhere in the archives.” Only in some magazines, covers and exhibitions.

These images exist only in this book.
If you own it, you own access. If not… well, imagination is free.)

Why only 55 copies? That seems… dramatic.

No drama.) Just Intentions.

Some things lose their meaning when multiplied.
This book was never meant to be mass-produced, fast-shipped, or trend-approved.

Each of the 55 copies is signed, numbered, and quietly aware of its own rarity.)

Is this fashion photography? Nude photography? Art?

Yes.
And also no.

It’s not about categories — it’s about inner states.
Strength without posing.
Elegance without performance.
A body that exists as space, not spectacle.

Is there text inside the book?

Yes — but it knows when to be silent.

The book includes original quotes and reflections by Alya,
written over years of life, yoga, meditation, and deep observation.

Think of the text as a whisper between pages —
not an explanation, not a lecture, definitely not instructions.

Is this book an art object?

Very much so.

It was designed to live in space, not in storage:
on a table, in a library, in a home where beauty doesn’t shout.

It doesn’t ask for attention.
It quietly keeps it.

Who is this book for?

For people who:

• are tired of visual noise

• appreciate black & white photography

• collect rare editions

• value depth over speed

• understand silence as a language

If you feel slightly recognized right now — that’s your answer.

Is this a good gift?

Yes. Especially if you want to give something that:

• can’t be replicated

• doesn’t expire

• doesn’t need explanation

This is not a “safe” gift.
It’s a meaningful one.
