A collection of behind-the-scenes photographs of renowned art-collector and eccentric, Peggy Guggenheim, taken between 1969 and 1974.

Format: Hardback
Length: 144 pages
Publication date: 20 September 2018
Publisher: Hardie Grant Books (UK)


Born into a wealthy New York family in 1898, Marguerite "Peggy" Guggenheim was one of the greatest art collectors of the 20th century. Using her inheritance to open her first art gallery, Peggy's love of art lead her to eventually settle in Venice, where she relaunched her life after becoming the star of the 1948 Venice Art Biennale. For her, a life without the inspiration of her artist and writer friends would have been unthinkable.

In Encounters with Peggy Guggenheim, renowned photographer Stefan Moses reveals his collection of photographs of Peggy, taken between 1969 and 1974, many of which have never been seen before. Striking, eccentric, and dramatic, Moses photographed Peggy in her favorite places around Venice, as well as in her private palazzo at Canal Grande. See Peggy as she glides on her gondola with her Lhasa apso dogs, wearing her iconic butterfly glasses made by Edward Melcarth—the quickness and talent of Moses captures the character of this true eccentric.

An inspiration for art, photography, and fashion lovers alike, Encounters with Peggy Guggenheim is a behind-the-scenes look at one of the world's most eccentric and inspirational women.
