'At a time when the world's leading media channels were portraying women as ambassadors of perfection and youthfulness, Lindbergh offered and supported a different kind of beauty, perhaps not perfect but more real, and capable of arousing emotions. Hence the title, "Emotional", of the 2017 Calendar, with 14 international actresses, including Nicole Kidman, Helen Mirren, Penelope Cruz and Uma Thurman. In the 2017 edition, the German master became the only photographer to have been asked to make the Pirelli Calendar for a third time, after the one he created in the El Mirage desert in California in 1996, and the one of 2002, which he shot at the studios of Paramount Pictures in Los Angeles' (Pirelli Calendar website). Unusually for this calendar, the subjects ranged from 28 (Alicia Vikander) to 71 years of age (Helen Mirren). The calendar is produced in a limited number, none for sale. This example is numbered 09142 on the final page.
