Summary:"Cecil Beaton : The Royal Portraits looks back in time to tell a very modern tale: the creation of a public image. Offering a fresh appraisal of Beaton's portraits of the British royal family, taken between the 1930s and 1970s, the book explores not only the finished photographs-including some that have never been published before- but also Beaton's methods, his relationships with his sitters, and how the portraits were received. What emerges is a fascinating, behind- the-scenes account of Beaton the royal photographer and his central role in shaping the public face of the House of Windsor".
