The Italian edition (often associated with 1976, issue 131 or late '76) published a set of nude photos of Eva shot by French photographer Jacques Bourboulon, rather than her mother. The Controversial Age:
Eva Ionesco (born 1965) was already known in elite, artistic photography circles as the subject of her mother, Irina Ionesco's, "Lolita"-style, fetishistic, and sexually provocative photos since the age of four. The Playboy Feature:
: Unlike the soft-focus work of David Hamilton, Bourboulon used bright light and sharp contrasts. The images depicted Eva nude on a beach and on a terrace by the sea. The "Italian Loophole"
Eva Ionesco did not remain a silent subject of these photographs. She grew up to become a filmmaker and actress, eventually directing the 2011 film My Little Princess. The film is a semi-autobiographical account of her relationship with her mother, starring Isabelle Huppert as the photographer figure.
