Book First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Jacket photo after Cecil Beaton (illustrator). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT DEDICATION, IN BLACK PEN, ON TITLE PAGE. Some very slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, top corners slightly bruised, not price clipped (price on back jacket £25.00), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy. 286pp, illustrated. For nearly half a century Sir Roy Strong has enjoyed a high public profile in the arts world in Britain. Yet remarkably little is known about his life before the Swinging Sixties when he burst upon the scene as the revolutionary trendy young director of the National Portrait Gallery, aged thirty one. In this book he recounts for the first time the story of his social origins and the roots of his lifelong passion for the culture and history of England. He describes his childhood home in a suburban North London terrace, revealing himself to have been a shy solitary child of melancholy temperament, painting Elizabethan miniatures and Shakespearean set designs in his teens. It follows him through grammar school and university, where together with a generation of postwar 'meritocrats' like A.S. Byatt and Alan Bennett, his passion for learning was awakened and nourished. We catch glimpses of seminal experiences, such as his first outings to the theatre, opera and ballet, and his first trip abroad to Italy, which was to have a lasting influence on his sensibilities. He explores key, sometimes painful relationships with his family, his school teacher with whom he had a lifelong correspondence, and his debt to such people as C.V. Wedgwood, A.L. Rowse, Frances Yates and Cecil Beaton. In it we glimpse a vanished world dominated by class and hierarchy up which he climbed. As a backdrop we have the transformation of London from the drab, postwar world of the 1950s to the epicentre of fashion in the 1960s, and the development of Sir Roy's distinctive sartorial style, inspired by the burgeoning shops on Carnaby Street. Richly illustrated with drawings, letters, photographs and other archival material, this is an honest and compelling portrait of a young man about to step into the limelight of the British cultural scene he helped to modernize and in which he played a leading role. Scarce signed. Signed by Author(s).

First Edition
Softcover. Condition: g to vg. First edition. Quarto. Unpaginated. Original photo-illustrated dust-jacket over pink wrappers. Frontispiece portrait of Cecil Beaton. Cecil Beaton (1904-1980) is one of the most celebrated British portrait photographers of the 20th Century and is renowned for his images of elegance, glamour and style. His influence on portrait photography was profound and lives on today in the work of many contemporary photographers including David Bailey and Mario Testino. "Beaton Portraits" was published on the occasion of Sir Roy Strong's ground-breaking exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in 1968. This volume brings together 36 portraits from the five remarkable decades of Beaton's career, including iconic images as well as those never seen before. Beaton captures 50 years of fashion, art and celebrity, from Dame Edith Sitwell in the 1920s to W. H. Auden in 1967. Includes portraits of Churchill, Queen Elizabeth, Nureyev, etc. Moderate rubbing along edges of dust-jacket. DJ in overall good- to good, wrappers and interior in very good condition.
