Authorised by Tamara de Lempicka's own daughter, this biography provides a unique insight into the artist's personality and experiences. The book explores her rise to fame, her relationships with the rich and famous, and her enduring legacy. With a new introduction by Marisa de Lempicka, the artist's great-granddaughter, this edition offers a fresh perspective on a truly remarkable woman. This new edition of Passion by Design is a must-have for anyone interested in the art and history of the 20th century. With its stunning illustrations and engaging narrative, it is a book that will appeal to art lovers, historians, and anyone fascinated by the stories of women who broke the mold.
