内容简介

The French Riviera was the place to be during the twenties and early thirties. Artists and writers from all over the world came to "invent" a new way of life. Their names were Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Gerald and Sara Murphy, Picasso, Man Ray, Picabia, Stravinsky, Coco Chanel, Cocteau, Edith Wharton, Diaghilev, Eileen Gray, Anna de Noailles, and Hemingway, to name a few. French Riviera is a photobiography of this happy time. It revives the now legendary story of these mythic personalities living in a world divided between a thirst for creation, the hunt for happiness, and the ominously approaching violence of World War II. Thanks to the extraordinary personal archives that are revealed in these pages for the first time, you will witness firsthand the lifestyles and the omnipresent artwork of some of the most important artists of the 20th century.
