Monica Bellucci has chosen Bomarzo to celebrate her 60th birthday; one of her photos, taken and signed by the director Tim Burton, appeared on the cover of Vogue Italia October issue.
The Sacred Woods of Bomarzo, a jewel full of charm and mystery, was the perfect venue for the photoshoot of Tim Burton dedicated to the actress, her partner in life.
Queen of the night and fantastic creature, her dress in perfect harmony with the gothic and fairy atmosphere of the park, Monica Bellucci has been wonderfully portrayed by the American director, who collaborated for the first time with the Italian magazine.
Through a labyrinth of sculptures and thick vegetation, the renowned Italian actress wanders around like a goddess, in a dreamlike journey among the monstrous creatures.
“Happy Birthday dear Monica, with love, Tim”, wrote Tim Burton on the cover, where Monica Bellucci emerges from the jaws of the Ogre, the symbol of the Sacred Woods.
