This work comes from the only session of fashion photography in which Prażmowski has participated in his career. The artist made a series of photographs on a commission of Mitsuhiro Matsuda, a Japanese fashion designer, for his 1991 Spring-Summer collection. Tara (Tarra), an Abyssinian princess portrayed here by Prażmowski, was a top model at the time. Most of the photographs were taken in Seville, Spain and were later processed by the artist himself and printed in Matsuda`s catalogue, which was not only a professional guidebook to the collection but also a refined art publication.
