A Surrealist before she even knew of the movement, Lee Miller was
one of the most original photographic artists of the twentieth
century. David E. Scherman, LIFE photographer and Miller's close
friend, described her as "caustically brilliant, yet totally loyal,
unpretentious, human and intolerant of sham. She was a consummate
artist and a consummate clown; at once an upstate New York hick and
cosmopolitan grande dame; a cold, soignee fashion model and a
hoyden. . . . She was the nearest thing I knew to a mid-20th
century renaissance woman." The Surrealist eye informed everything
Miller did, and her work presents the world in a way that
encourages us to view it in a different manner. Written and
collected by her son Antony, Surrealist Lee Miller amasses more
than one hundred full-page images from throughout the artist's life
as an attestation to her wonderful way of seeing.
