Arthur, we havent changed the theme yet, have we? I didn't think so, but anyway, I'm procrastinating working on my paper here, so I thought I'd post some more protraits. In my opinion, the best portrait photographer of old Hollywood was Cecil Beaton. He photographed everyone who was anyone, and really had an eye for beauty and glamour. I know I've probably shared these before a long time ago, but they fit the theme, and I appologize for the watermark thing, I did it a long time ago out of annoyance of people stealing my scans. These are large scans so they aren't dial-up friendly.
I'm including some others as well:)
