“Those who praise Alain Delon’s beauty have clearly never seen his eldest son: he is even more handsome than his father!”

A disturbing resemblance… and a beauty that spans the ages

What is still striking today is the extent to which Anthony Delon embodies a mature, peaceful beauty. With age,  his face has become denser, gaining depth  without losing what made it captivating. There is about him that timeless French elegance:  discreet, distinguished, imbued with a certain melancholy .

Internet users put it bluntly:  “Those who admire Alain Delon haven’t seen Anthony in his prime.”  And it’s true that at times, the son’s photos almost seem to supplant those of the father. A form of silent revenge against the weight of a name that has become a myth.
