The Pirelli Calendar: A 10 Year Collection of Masterpieces

From its conception in the early 1960s the Pirelli Calendar has become an international icon of all things beautiful, showcasing phenomenal photographic talent from a deluge of world renown snappers, an honour role of models and has captured some of the most innovative and exciting photographic images.  Here I want to celebrate the icon that is the Pirelli Calendar and the visionary artists behind it.  Some of my favourite moments over the years:
