As we first told you at the start of the month, the theme of the 2011 Pirelli calendar has been confirmed as being structured around the classic Roman and Greek gods; Jove, Bacchus and a host of supporting goddesses in the form of some of the world’s leading supermodels.

Previously, we’d only been privy to two behind-the-scenes photos from the calendar showing Karl Lagerfeld, who is the calendar’s photographer, and some of the cast models.
