Paolo Verzone

Pendant plus de 5 ans, il a travaillé au sein des principales Académies Militaires européennes. “Cadets” a fait l’objet en 2014 d’un livre aux Editions de La Martinière et d’une exposition aux Invalides…

During the past five years, he worked on a series of students’ portraits from military academy throughout Europe. “Cadets” has been published by Editions de La Martinière and exhibited at the Hôtel des Invalides…
