Reading Rocks said This is really an odd book. I am a big fan of Audrey Hepburn - of her movies and of her style and elegance, so when this book came out I knew that I would be buying it. It is a compilation of all black/white photos of Ms. Hepburn during the time she visited/worked, and ultimately lived in Rome. 95% of the photos show her just walking around the city (walking her dog, walking with a friend, walking with her first, then second husband, walking by herself) and at Rome's airports (getting on a plane, getting off of a plane, going thru Customs); the remaining 5% of the photos are of her at events or premieres. There are approximately 6-10 pages throughout the book wi. Lovely Audrey It's hard to be original in describing my feelings about "Audrey in Rome". I met her as a boy of 7 when she visited us as part of our family in Holland during World War II. She became such a wonderful icon for many years later, something I could have never anticipated. "Audrey in Rome" is a revelation of her splendid time there and the wonderful photographs reveal its happy part. Luca Dotti and his collaborators deserve great credit for putting it together. It's a magnificent photo book that is displayed on my reading table, to keep looking at it and enjoy her memory. I wrote a short story about how I met Audrey as a boy and then late. "Five Stars" according to Amazon Customer. Very informative. Thanks.
During the twenty years that she lived in Rome, Audrey Hepburn—legendary actress, fashion icon, and humanitarian—was the epitome of chic European style, from her little black dresses to her ballet flats. Her partnership with designer Hubert de Givenchy resulted in some of the most memorable and timeless looks on film.Audrey in Rome is a gorgeous coffee table book that includes almost 200 candid photographs of the movie star--many of which have never been published before. These rare snapshots give us glimpses into the everyday life of the gamine star of such classic films as Roman Holiday, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Sabrina.Edited by her son, Luca Dotti, and Ludovica Damiani, film and theater writer and producer, and with text by fashion director and stylist Sciascia Gambaccini, Audrey in Rome is as personal as having Audrey Hepburn's family scrapbook in your hands.
With an introduction by Dotti that reveals Audrey's private side and three photo-filled chapters organized by decade, the book captures the actress as she strolls around the city alone and with family and friends, walks her Yorkie, Mr. Famous, has breakfast in Piazza Navona, visits the local florist, and more. Irresistible as the actress herself, Audrey in Rome opens the door to Hepburn's personal world.. The book also contains set photographs of the films she made during her Rome years (Roman Holiday, War and Peace, The Nun's Story, Breakfast at Tiffany's) and of the famous clothes and accessories that helped create her iconic look.
