Synopsis
In this autobiography Erte looks back over the years and, with his characteristic eye for significant and amusing detail, he describes the personae and events that have filled his life. He recalls his childhood in Russia, his years in Monte Carlo during World War I, and his life in Paris and Hollywood. The procession of well-known characters is vividly described - from Isadora Duncun to Barbra Streisand, from Louis B Mayer to Roland Petit.

"In this autobiography Erte (born Romain de Tirtoff in St Petersburg in 1892) looks back over the years and describes the characters and events that have filled them with his characteristic eye for significant and amusing detail. He recalls his childhood in Russia; his years in Monte Carlo during World Wart I; the 1920s when he returned to Paris, visited Hollywood, and experienced the effects of the Wall Street crash; the war years in Paris with their austerity and moments of light relief; the greatest revival of show business in the '50 and '60s and the world-wide acclaim that came to him in the '60s and '70s through a series of international exhibitions." Previous owner's inscription to title page. Light shelf wear to the price-clipped dust jacket. Both book and jacket are otherwise in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean.
