From inside the dust jacket: "This book thus provides a remarkably valuable record of the designs, the fashions and the graphic art of a period which saw momentous developments in the arts--a time when the work of the young Picasso was gaining recognition and the ballets of Diaghilev were taking Paris, London and New York by storm. In the many covers artists such as Lepape and Benito drew for Vogue the true image of the Jazz Age is brilliantly reflected." Beautifully produced compilation of every Vogue cover from 1920 to 1930, and some from before and after.
