(11 October 1871 - 20 December 1961)
Galdi was a frequent model for Wilhelm von Gloeden and Guglielmo Plüschow and Plüschow was likely his lover as well as his mentor, but the younger man was already trained in photography and optics at the Naples’ Institute of Fine Arts and had worked in the studio of Giorgio Sommer. Unlike his German cohorts, however, Galdi was Italian, Neapolitan precisely. Galdi is credited with showing erections on his often well endowed models. There’s even one of a boy kissing the head of his very long dick. His collaboration with Plüschow, in Rome, lasted from 1895 until Galdi’s marriage to Virginia Guglielmi in 1902. He turned to art dealing after the crack down on their collective erotic artistic enterprise, remained married, despite keeping a much younger male lover, and lived a long life.
