Monsieur by Patrick O'higgins

Patrick O'Higgins (1922-1980) was best known for his bestselling memoir Madame, about the time that he spent working with the cosmetics tycoon Helena Rubinstein. But he also had a less well-known life as a photographer. Now, in Monsieur, the lost photographs of O'Higgins are reproduced. The images include famous sitters such as W.H. Auden, Cecil Beaton, Jean Cocteau and Somerset Maugham, who jostle alongside thoughtful and revealing portraits of less well-known characters and evocative genre scenes. The result is a compelling and enigmatic insight into the worlds that Patrick O'Higgins inhabited.
