Perfect for fans of THE CROWN, fashion photography, artists memoirs, and twentieth-century history. Sir Cecil Beaton (1904 1980) was an English fashion, portrait and war photographer, painter, diarist and Academy Award-winning stage and costume designer. Beatons sixth and final volume covers 1963-74. It follows Beaton's encounters with the youth of the swinging sixties but also the parting of many of his lifelong friends. In Marrakesh he meets Mick Jagger and in England David Hockney comes to stay.

THE PARTING YEARS is the sixth volume of Cecil Beatons Diaries, a personal memoir of the twentieth century, covering famous artists and photographers, political figures, socialites, the rich & famous and movie stars. One of the reasons I continue to love and a
