"I don’t take ugly pictures of Jackie. If I have an unattractive picture of Jackie I tear it up. She’s too beautiful to permit the camera to play tricks on her."
Ron Galella, Jacqueline
In the 1970s, Ron Galella, the original paparazzo, was Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis's mortal enemy. However, he quite adored her, even when she sought a restraining order against him. Though he might have lost in a court of law, the court of time ruled differently. His candid snapshots of her are among the most iconic images of the 20th Century. Their adversarial nature produced art in a way that official publicity photos never could.
