David Bailey book. Art Edition No. 76–150 ‘Jean Shrimpton, 1965’ - Taschen

This retrospective of SUMO's greatness highlights one of the most influential photographers in the world and culminates two years of research into his archives. Collecting portraits from the 1950s to 2010, we discover around 300 subjects as diverse as Nelson Mandela, The Beatles, The Queen, Salvador Dali, Bill Gates, and Yves Saint Laurent, all printed large and bold, in Bailey's characteristic style.

This artistic edition features Jean Shrimpton's signature, Bailey's Muse and Lover. That day, one of the most recognizable faces of Swinging London in the 60s, inevitably appears in Bailey's game-changing *Bailey Box Of Pin-Ups*. “She was magical. The fact that she was the cheapest model in the world — just needed to shoot half a roll of film, and then have it,” Bailey said.
