[Cecil Beaton Dust Jacket] Portheim, Paul Cohen. The Spirit of Paris. First English Edition. 1937. Book and dust jacket are both in good plus condition—there is minor foxing to the page edges, and jacket shows light fraying and minor tears. Dust jacket illustration by Cecil Beaton. 

This attractive book, with its marvelous Beaton-illustrated jacket, captures the essence of Paris. The author explains that among world cities, Paris is unique in its ability to embrace modernity without sacrificing its past to it. Its unique alchemy enables creativity and inspiration to flourish in spite of (but not at the expense of) industrialization. The book includes over one hundred photogravure plates of images taken by the leading French photographers of that era.
