Synopsis
Slim Aarons made a career, in his words, photographing attractive people who were doing attractive things in attractive places. His subjects were the beautiful and the celebrated, the rich and the powerful, the talented and the privileged, high society and aristocracy. Slim Aarons captured their image for the picture magazines of the 1940s - '90s, and, in so doing so, defined the image of the Beautiful People - the post-war international Jet Set. Aarons always shows his subjects in their natural setting, in a circumstance synonymous with their station in life, and in so doing, he gained their trust and a most precious thing - access. And so he was welcomed into the exclusive precincts of the world's elite, in essence attaining the status of court photographer. The images included here are the fruit of that access., The next U.S. president will need to pursue a new strategic framework foradvancing American interests in the Middle East. In Restoring the Balance, experts from the Saban Center at the Brookings Institution and from the Council on Foreign Relations propose a new, nonpartisan strategy drawing on the lessons of past failures to address both the short-term and long-term challenges to U.S. interests., In a host of memorable portraits, across a vast geography of resorts, estates, palaces, elegant apartments, mansions, castles, and other glamorous settings, Slim Aarons's photos define that legendary class known as the "beautiful people." 250 color photos., A Place in the Sun collects Slim Aarons's photographs capturing the glamorous lifestyles of some of high society's most prominent people. "Slim Aarons is known for his dreamy lifestyle photographs of celebrities and socialites in jaw-dropping locations around the world." -- Architectural Digest Since 1940 Slim Aarons has been hard at work, first as a war photographer, then with unprecedented access as a photographer to the rich and famous. In this book, he develops the environmental portrait to the level of art, always showing his subjects in their natural setting, in a circumstance synonymous with their station in life. Aarons documented a particular world that has vanished. A Place in the Sun is that special glimpse of privilege under a bright and beaming sky, whether on sandy shore, snowy slope, or elegant home where cares are few. Through 250 stunning color pictures, Aarons provides a veritable Who's Who of high society: Aristotle Onassis with his first wife, Tina, and their children C. Z. Guest at her villa in Palm Beach The Aga Khan at his Sardinian resort Truman Capote in Palm Springs And more! From Mustique to Monaco, from Aspen to Gstaad, only Aarons can take us on a journey to the most exclusive playgrounds of the rich, inspiring even the most jaded armchair traveler. Aarons never used a stylist, a makeup artist, or anything but natural light. Since the settings encouraged swimwear, it is astonishing how beautiful these men, women, and children were. There is a shimmering sensuality about this bygone world. Astonishing, too, is the vibrant intensity of the colors. They don't take photographs like this anymore. But we are lucky that Slim Aarons did!

    Purchased a book from this seller, which arrived in great condition. I particularly appreciated that the item's listing showed actual photos of the book rather than a generic cover image. The seller also answered me quickly, and provided additional photos when I asked for them. Shipping cost was appropriate for sending outside the States. Great value for money, and great seller. I'm very happy with my purchase!
