American-born artist Lee Miller (1907-1977) has been increasingly championed by scholars and curators for her Surrealism-inspired photographs. Her captivating images of Paris in the late 1920s and early 1930s, her dreamlike portraits of desert landscapes and sexually suggestive architecture taken in Egypt in the mid-1930s, and her witty, yet often disturbing, photographs of the Second World War and its aftermath have been widely discussed. However, while popular interest in Miller’s colourful life and photographic work has been rapidly growing during the past forty years, her true worth as a prominent Surrealist artist has been somewhat overlooked. This new collection of essays addresses this issue, revalidating Lee Miller’s Surrealist position, not simply as a muse, friend, and collaborator with the Surrealists, but as one of the twentieth century’s most important and influential female Surrealist artists.

"This joint biography tells the story of how a fashion model turned photographer and an English Quaker turned Surrealist painter and art collector influenced modern art with their vision and passion. As they inspired each other's careers and established their home as a meeting place for the exchange of ideas among artists such as Pablo Picasso, Man Ray, Max Ernst, Paul Eluard, Joan Miro, and Saul Steinberg, Miller and Penrose created a life together that was in itself a work of art. In the book concise accounts of their lives are followed by comparisons of their works, which demonstrate their symbiotic relationship. The range of art reproduced in the book - photographs, sketches, paintings, and collages - offers a kaleidoscopic sampling of these two important oeuvres and an exquisite portrayal of a unique and uniquely productive partnership."--Amazon.

A reproduction of a 1938 photobook Roland Penrose made for Lee Miller as they traveled the world at the outset of World War II. In 1938, as Europe prepared for war, Roland Penrose and Lee Miller made a journey together through the Balkans. Penrose was a painter, author, and curator. Miller, previously a model, was a brilliant photographer. As they traveled, Penrose created pictures and took notes, and on their return produced a charming handmade photobook for Miller--a surrealist love poem, drawn from his own memories and records. This special facsimile edition of the book Penrose wrote for Miller has an important place in the history of Surrealist literature, and it provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of two artists and their journey of discovery in a world that would soon be transformed forever.
