Grace Kelly (A Life in Pictures) - Tapa dura

"What was most entrancing about my mother was her compassion and generosity of spirit. She didn't pose in order to become beautiful, she simply was beautiful. The photographs in the book--unseen until now--show why." --His Serene Highness Prince Albert II "Stunningly documents Kelly's story." "--Harper's Bazaar"

An illustrated celebration of Grace Kelly, one of Hollywoods brightest stars, is already long overdue. This book will also coincide with two significant anniversaries: 2006 sees 50 years since she married Prince Rainier and 2007 is the 25th anniversary of her death. The book will include a detailed biography and over 160 pictures and contact sheets, many of which are reproduced for the first time. Hand-written documents and famous quotes on and from Grace Kelly complement impressive iconographic research (family pictures, national archives, private collections, press agencies, newspapers). Also included are images and contact sheets from prestigious photographers, all of which give us a highly individual portrait of a cinematic legend.
