Description from the seller

Rare XXL hard-to-find book!
The book is new or old stock, NOS.
One of the most beautiful printed books from our collection!
Printed in Japan with sheet-fed process.

Before his death in 1955, George Platt Lynes began editing his work for a planned book of portraits. The book never materialized, and Lynes bitterly complained to friends about how unimaginative publishers were. Portraits 1927-1955 presents an impressive body of his oeuvre — from early work in Paris to his final sittings in New York City. Tennessee Williams, Colette, André Gide, Gertrude Stein, Edith Sitwell, W. H. Auden, Paul Cadmus, Igor Stravinsky, E. M. Forster, William Inge, Burt Lancaster, and T. S. Eliot are among those included. Many rarely seen portraits, including several revealing self-portraits, are reproduced here for the first time in large-format sheet-fed gravures.
