Cecil Beaton Stage and Film Designs - Charles Spencer - 1st edition, 1975

About the Item

Published by Academy Editions, London & St. Martin’s Press, New York, 1st edition, 1975. Hardback with English text. Inspired by the Edwardian beau monde, Beaton’s oeuvre as a stage and costume designer is often overlooked by virtue of his most lauded and best-known photography works. This book gives Beaton’s artistic design works its deserved attention, illuminating us with Beaton’s muti-faceted talent and awash us with the artistic glamour of the stage and film sets Beaton created with elaboration and fantastical extravagance. Abundantly illustrated with black-and-white reproduced photographs, Beaton’s unbridled genius is fully unleashed between these pages. Dimensions: 31.5 x 24 x 1.5 cm Condition: Very Good +
