Yevonde's portraits embody glorified tradition countered with a desire for the new; her most renowned body of work is a series of women dressed as goddesses posed in surreal tableaux from the 1930s. Yevonde championed photography during a time when there were few women photographers working professionally, and this book tells the story of her life, her works and her 60-year career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eYevonde: Life and Colour\u003c\/i\u003e brings the photographer's works together for the first time in 20 years. With an abundance of reproductions, and featuring previously unpublished works, the book showcases her experimentation with a range of techniques and genres including color photography, portraiture, still lifes, solarization and the Vivex color process, and repositions her as a key modern artist of the 20th century. It also provides in-depth context for Yevonde's images, considering their aesthetic and mythic references.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYevonde\u003c\/b\u003e (1893-1975), also known as Madame Yevonde, was a London-based photographer of portraits and still lifes whose motto was \"be original or die.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.8 x 12.4 x 10.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 08, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47349653766393,"sku":"9781855145634","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/0Z30AB2giD9781855145634_3acebf37-9173-4cdb-88a8-4dd855686ada.webp?v=1769779498","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/yevonde-life-and-colour-hardcover-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
