Sophia Loren in einem intimen Schwarzweiß-Porträt von Alfred Eisenstaedt

Sophia by Eisenstaedt

The Queen of Italy: Sophia Loren through the lens of Alfred Eisenstaedt

Sophia Loren is more than a film icon – she embodies elegance, strength, and Italian glamour. For almost two decades, LIFE photographer Alfred Eisenstaedt accompanied the actress with a unique closeness that could only arise from mutual trust. The result is one of the most intimate and authentic portraits of a global icon.

From the early 1960s to the late 1970s, Eisenstaedt photographed Loren on film sets, in her private life, with her family, and in moments of quiet naturalness. This Collector’s Edition, personally signed by Sophia Loren, brings together almost 200 photographs – the vast majority of which are unpublished.

This book showcases Sophia Loren not just as a silver screen goddess, but as a muse, mother, wife, and friend. A visual declaration of love to one of the greatest personalities of the 20th century.
