juergen teller on cecil beaton’s miss nancy beaton as a shooting star (shown above)
'it’s a lovely picture, like a fairy tale. It’s not necessary to know the allegorical reference,
and maybe it isn’t specific to the sitter, but the photograph is really magical and the use of that foil
is such a simple way to put some glitter and fantasy into it. In his early portraits beaton often used
backdrops of beautiful fabric or other material to surround the subject, and it distances them from
their real selves as much as the imaginative costume. the photograph, and the sitter, is timeless,
charming and innocent.'
