Description: Wild: The Life of Peter Beard: Photographer, Adventurer, Lover [Hardcover] Bo... Product Overview Format: Hardcover, Deckle Edge Graham Boynton's Wild is the definitive biography of photographer Peter Beard, a larger-than-life icon who pushed the boundaries of art and scandalized international high society with his high-profile affairs.He was the original 20th century “enfant terrible” with the looks of a Greek god who blazed like a comet across the worlds of art, photography, and fame. The scion of several old WASP fortunes, he was by instinct an adventurer, and the more dangerous the escapade, the better: whether he was hunting big game in Africa, ingesting epic quantities of drugs, or pursuing the most beautiful women in the world. Among his friends were Jackie Onassis, Andy Warhol, and Francis Bacon. When Peter Beard died in 2020 after mysteriously disappearing from his Montauk home, he remained an enigma to even his closest friends.Journalist and author Graham Boynton was a friend for more than 30 years, spending time with Beard at his bush camp in Africa, in London, and at his Long Island home. From hundreds of Boynton’s interviews with Beard’s closest friends, former lovers, and fellow artists comes this intimate portrait of a man Sir Mick Jagger called “a visionary.” Details Publisher : St. Martin's Press (October 11, 2022) Language : English Hardcover : 352 pages ISBN-10 : 1250274990 ISBN-13 : 91 Item Weight : 1.3 pounds Dimensions : 6.4 x 1.3 x 9.2 inches Best Sellers Rank: #187,665 in Books (See Top 100 in Books) #241 in Artist & Architect Biographies #954 in Traveler & Explorer Biographies #1,329 in Rich & Famous Biographies #241 in Artist & Architect Biographies Quality Products Have peace of mind knowing that your order will arrive original factory sealed packaging.
