Sobre este artículo
NY: Rizzoli. As New in As New dust jacket. 1992. Stated First Edition. First Printing. Hard Cover. 0847814963 . Publisher's full black cloth, gilt lettering on spine, blind-stamped lettering on cover, photographic endpapers. Profusely illustrated with full-page, full-color photographs of Ferragamo's shoe designs. Throughout his rags-to-riches career, Ferragamo was patronized by movie stars, socialites, diplomats, and royalty. Known in 1920s Hollywood as "shoemaker to the stars," he eventually returned to Italy to create shoes that were both comfortable and highly innovative. This gorgeous catalog, which accompanies a Los Angeles County Museum of Art exhibition, features over 200 examples of his work in full-color photographs so crisp that every stitch and crease is visible. Here are shoes as objets d'art. The wedge heels and platform soles popular in the 1940s were attributed to Ferragamo, whose response to wartime leather shortages was the imaginative use of fish skins, raffia, cork, and even mirrored glass. Curators Ricci and Meader recount Ferragamo's colorful life and achievements, making this book a valuable resource beyond its illustrations. Because the artist's autobiography, Shoemaker of Dreams (1957; Crown, 1972. reprint.), is out of print, this high-quality work is an especially worthwhile purchase for design and fashion history collections.. Both the volume and the unclipped dust jacket are in perfect, pristine condition; unread, unmarked, tight, square, and clean. A large, heavy book - additional shipping charges may apply. AS NEW/AS NEW.. Color Plates. Oblong 4to 11" - 13" tall. 240 pp .
