Back and more gleaming than ever, this new edition of Stars & Cars marks the 100th anniversary of legendary Irish photographer, Edward Quinn.
A curation of 150 of Quinn’s finest photographs that captures the jet-set glamour and opulent car design of 1950s Côte d’Azur: Picasso and his Hispano-Suiza, Brigitte Bardot in her Lancia, and the Onassis’ in their Porsche, amongst others. A lavish ride through midcentury joie de vivre, where celebrities from showbiz, art, and aristocracy ride their classic cars through the golden South of France sunshine.
Text in English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian.
