Like a Roman empress, in black and white, Anda lives her moment of glory, facing Vesuvius, over the aeons.
Miss Vesuvius – yes, she is the one – convinced the jury that beauty erupts, transcending from the aura of the tumultuous Neapolitan landscapes. Self confident, voluntary, temperamental.
It’s what the lines of Anda’s face suggest, her chin gently pushing forward, broad curls of her heavy hair falling down on the shoulders in the brightness of ebony light.
The same Latin restlessness unfolds from the elegant firmness of her body, the relaxed stances, and the air of a certain distinction.
And because Anda Mocanu is Miss Vesuvius 2009 and Vesuvius is a casino and a casino is, before all, yearning, chance and fulfilled dream, the good things that have redefined her on the course of this struggle of femininity can be assimilated with a victory at the playing table, where she, Anda, received the winning ace.
