Book Synopsis Portraits from Hollywood's Golden Age of Glamour by : Colin Slater and The Hollywood Photo Archive
Download or read book Portraits from Hollywood's Golden Age of Glamour written by Colin Slater and The Hollywood Photo Archive and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In photographs only seen briefly as part of studio press kits distributed upon release of a new film, these long-lost stills of Hollywood’s leading ladies have been reverently rendered into color portraits that not only evoke a treasured past of beauty and glamour, but also seem comfortably familiar to the contemporary eye. These posed photos have been chosen not only for their bespoke sensuality, but also for how the discrete addition of color has elevated a black and white still to a kind of artistic grace, prompting rediscovery of classic Hollywood’s most beautiful women. Actresses portrayed here include Julie Andrews, Anna Mae Wong, Audrey Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, Bette Davis, Carole Lombard, Carroll Baker, Joan Crawford, Marion Davies, Angie Dickinson, Eva Marie Saint, and many others.
