She was wearing a pink leotard-type garment at the property near Turin where she was allegedly held hostage for up to six days.
In one of the pictures, the woman had a sick and twisted Dark Web advert pinned to her stomach which asked bidders to start their offers at $300,000.

The model (pictured leaving her home in Coulsdon) told officers in Italy she was drugged and kidnapped
The email read: 'Did you know chloe ayling has been kidnapped in italy and is now for sale by russian mafia ??? see attachament.'
It was sent along with the two images and the auction note which informed readers that 'collection can be arranged' or that 'girls can be transported globally'.
The note named her as 'Chloe, born in UK, abducted in Italy and held in Italy' and also described her as being a 'beginner model'.
In the email, it stated that 'all our girls are set for auctions only' and 'are being held in Europe' and also gave her measurements.
It also reminded buyers to 'always make sure you are on a genuine Black Death Group website' and said there are a lot of 'fake copies' online.
The message indicated that auctions typically take place on a Sunday and doctors test the women to make sure they do not have any STDs, reports The Sun.
The National Crime Agency has said it is aware of the email and is leading the investigation.
Miss Ayling told police she had been lured to a fake photoshoot in Milan where was drugged, stripped and handcuffed before being bundled into a suitcase in a car.
Her lawyer, Francesco Pesce, said she was given chocolates and underwear as presents by her abductors and she told officers her captor had slept next to her in a double bed.
Miss Ayling's captors allegedly tried to sell her and police have been holding their prime suspect – Polish man Lukasz Herba, who moved to the UK several years ago.
Today, her close friend Carla Belluci, a fellow model and agent, revealed Miss Ayling is trying to 'get back to normal' and is taking part in a topless shoot this afternoon.

Mr Pesce told Radio 4's Today programme: 'She was told that she was going to be sold to somebody in the Middle East for sex.
'She was told that people were there watching her and ready to kill her if she tried anything.
'So she thought that the best idea was to go along with it and to be nice in a way to her captor because he told her that he wanted to release her somehow and sometime and she thought that the best thing to do was not to go in conflict with him.
'So she abided to his request, 'let's go and buy groceries' and 'you need shoes, let's go buy shoes' and she didn't try to flee.
'But I believe she was terrified at the moment and even if she could've asked for help she didn't because she was subjugated to this person, or people as she was given to understand.'
Mr Pesce dismissed suggestions Miss Ayling may have somehow been in on the kidnap, describing it as 'evil'.
