The world in a face - that is how you could sum up the art of Piero Tosi, which is illustrated in this book via the Master's make-up, hair and period-costume lessons to students at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia. A whole array of pictures, most in black and white, as well as testimonials by actors, actresses, costume designers and hairdressers will take you into the heart of a complex art based on a diverse and eclectic mix of components. An art that requires exhaustive knowledge of the history of art and costume, as too a passion for composition and elegance - a unicum that creates the ability to concentrate the whole world in an actress's face.
