From the mythical De Dion Bouton Type K1 to the Delahaye, from the
Jeep Willys to the combi Volkswagen, from the Mercedes Benz to the
Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500, from the Aston Martin DB7 to the
Bugatti Veyron 16.4, and from the Austin Mini to the Range Rover. A
hundred years of innovation, inventiveness and triumphs are
condensed in this book, which reads as easily as a novel, and is
illustrated with a rich and rare iconography.
In 1950, photographer Gisele Freund embarked on a two-week trip to
Mexico, but she wouldn't leave until two years later. There she met
the legendary couple Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera. Welcomed into
their home, she immersed herself in their private lives and the
cultural and artistic diversity of the country, taking hundreds of
photographs. These powerful photographs, among the last taken
before Kahlo's death, bear poignant witness to Frida's beauty and
talent.Showcasing more than 100 of these rare images, many of which
have never been published before, the book also includes previously
unpublished commentary by Gisele Freund about Frida Kahlo, texts by
Kahlo's biographer Gerard de Cortanze and art historian Lorraine
Audric, as well as a link to a previously unreleased colour film,
shot by Freund, showing Diego Rivera at work.
