Elizabeth Taylor was the face of classic Hollywood. As one of the 20th century's most loved stars, her image is instantly recognisable the world over. ACC Art Books and Iconic Images proudly present the work of eight wonderful photographers - Douglas Kirkland, Milton Greene, Gered Mankowitz, Norman Parkinson, Eva Sereny, Terry O'Neill, Gary Bernstein and Greg Brennan - who were fortunate enough to capture the star at different moments of her life. Throughout the book, the photographers share their memories of working with the icon, from patient pursuits to charming persuasion, each enlightening us with an inside view of what it was like to work with such an icon. The book presents a mix of set, fashion, portrait and behind-the-scenes photographs, including some rare and never-before-seen images. Forever Elizabeth is a visual tribute from some of the world's best-known photographers to a star who continues to captivate our hearts.

"Now one of the most iconic faces of classic Hollywood returns to be the star in the photographic book Forever Elizabeth: Iconic Photographs on a Legendary Star published by ACC Art Books..." - Di Nicoletta Spolini, Vogue Italy
"Unseen Liz Taylor: New book publishes rare photographs of film legend playing dominoes on set in Sardinia, cooing over her toddler son in 1954 and drinking in a Paris hotel with Richard Burton" - Jo Tweedy, Daily Mail

"She was one of the most glamorous women of Hollywood's golden age. Ten years after her death, eight photographers reflect on what it was like to play a part in the creation of her enduring image." - Eve Watling, Independent
"She was Hollywood glamour personified and over the course of an astonishing six decade-long career, Elizabeth Taylor would continue to captivate audiences. In a new book, eight photographers reveal their memories of the woman who dazzled through their camera lenses." - Australian Women's Weekly
"So when the publicist for ACC Art Books reached out to me and said she had a publication named Forever Elizabeth: Iconic Photographers on a Legendary Star, I was pretty sure I had seen it all and would not find anything new in the book. I am delighted to report I was wrong." - Marion Fasel, The Adventurine

"This is a huge and luxurious book full of photographs of Elizabeth Taylor in her prime - and one has to say, what a prime it was.

"...as you spend more time with the book, you come to realize that you can't tear your eyes away from the pages as easily as you might flit from one star's Instagram account to another's. Elizabeth Taylor, it turns out, may have been the inspiration for an entire generation, but she was an altogether singular actress, and woman." - Air Mail

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
