About This Item
NY: Simon & Schuster, 1988. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover, 228 pages. Illustrated with full color and black & white photographs. Clean, bright copy. British photographer Beaton was noted for his portraits of royalty. His career spanned 50 years and included well-known portraits of King Geroge V and Queen Mary; his last official photo was in 1979. More than just a photographer, Beaton helped the royal family develop a worldwide image, an important component in the evolution and stability of the British monarchy as symbolic leaders of the Commonwealth. His photos were also an essential part of Britain's public relations and morale efforts, especially after Edward VIII's abdication and during World War II. A splendid compendium of Beaton's best works, supplemented by text explaining his importance. Record # 150026
