Vincenzo Galdi (Naples 1871 - Rome 1961) was an Italian photographer of the male and (mostly) female nude. He started as model and possibly lover, then assistant to Wilhelm von Plüschow, then he ran a studio of his own in Rome between 1900 circa and 1907. After the police closed down both his studio and Pluschow's one in 1907, he started an art gallery, in via del Babbuino in Rome, which he ran until his death. His photographs are sometimes mistaken for those by Wilhelm von Gloeden, but they have a rather distinct character of their own (definitely much more sexualː some of them being overt pornography), that can be easily spotted.
