Sir Cecil Walter Hardy Beaton ('CBE', 1904-1980) was a British fashion, portrait and war photographer, diarist, painter, and interior designer, as well as costume designer and set designer for stage and screen. His accolades include three Academy Awards and four Tony Awards.

He was a photographer for the British edition of Vogue in 1931 when George Hoyningen-Huene, photographer for the French Vogue travelled to England with his new friend Horst. Horst himself would begin to work for French Vogue in November of that year. The exchange and cross pollination of ideas between this collegial circle of artists across the Channel and the Atlantic gave rise to the look of style and sophistication for which the 1930s are known.
Beaton is known for his fashion photographs and society portraits. He worked as a staff photographer for Vanity Fair and Vogue in addition to photographing celebrities in Hollywood.

Reviewers of the first edition:

"This curiously important book, which contains more entertainment to the square inch than a year's issue of any illustrated paper, more beauty than the average picture show and more cleverness than a whole club-full of barristers."
- Edward Sackville West in 'The New Statesman & Nation' -

"In this glittering world where nothing shone as brightly as Mr. Beaton's muse, his photographic record smoothly proceeds; then in the " 30's' comes a surrealist spectre to mar the all-too-unconfined joy with nightmares not yet dreamed Mr. Beaton has made of his anthology a cautionary tale. It ends with magnificent photographs of London in ruins and R.A.F. bomber pilots at their controls. It is a fascinating and, in some ways, a moving book."
- Simon Harcourt-Smith in 'The Observer' -

" The best of Beaton, from the early nineteen-twenties to the early nineteen-forties-with all the pungency of contrast that that implies."
- The Sunday Times -

"...the pictures are in themselves exquisite examples of the photographer's art."
- ﻿The Scotsman -

"...﻿﻿intelligent, urbane, slightly mocking at Lige - The casson Herac, but always interesting"
- The Glasgow Herold -

"An extremely interesting book, whose value will increase with the passing of time."
- The Field -

"... entertaining for all, and instructive for the photographer." 
- The Times Literary Supplement -
