My photographs of forty doctors and nurses taken at Pesaro’s San Salvatore Hospital at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic have since become world famous shots of this historical moment.

The pictures, published in over 30 different countries, inspired and were featured in Dove’s worldwide “courage is beautiful” advertising campaign, leading Unilever to donate $153 million to hospitals working on the front lines around the world.
