Sir Cecil Beaton: A True Artist

Sir Cecil Beaton was one of the most talented artists of the 20th Century. An artist might be the appropiate word to describe him since he's not only one of the best photographers in history famous for his fashion photos and portraits; but he was also an interior designer, a costume designer, a stage designer, diarist, and last but not least one of the best dressed during his time.

Below a self portrait of Beaton in which he wears a monochromatic ensemble, adding contrast with his shoes.
