Tatiana de Ronay is an Anglo-French writer, screenwriter, journalist, and literary critic, whose works have been translated into many languages and published in millions of copies. This book about the famous Polish-born artist and Art Deco icon Tamara de Lempicka is a personal perspective from the writer, who shares with her heroine a unique perspective on the world of someone belonging to several cultures and familiar with the artistic environment firsthand.
'The art of Tamara de Lempicka has fascinated me since my youth. Back then, I had no idea about her turbulent biography or the scale of her creative ambitions. What kind of person was she? Where did she live? How did she become an outstanding artist? This book is my journey into Tamara's private world, an attempt to penetrate her secrets and creative ideas, to capture the pulsating rhythm of Paris in the twenties. I tell her story, and my daughter Charlotte, in her photographs, brings to life the legend of the brilliant queen of Art Deco, which intrigues us to this day.'
