Elizabeth Taylor is the quintessential classic beauty and Hollywood star. Captured here on the set of "Giant" in Marfa, Texas, 1955. Photo by Sid Avery What photographer Sid Avery said about taking this photo: "The cast had a table(lunch was catered) and we were sitting there eating. I sat across the table from Elizabeth Taylor. I had my Hasselblad camera down next to my plate. Next to her was Rock Hudson and the assistant director and next to me was James Dean and the director George Stevens. After finishing lunch, Liz pulled her chair back to get a little sun and when I saw her face up in the sun, with the light on it--it was just exquisite and I couldn't resist making a shot. It has become one of her favorite shots and is one of my favorite shots--it was just so candid and she looked so terrific. It's so odd because her violet eyes are such an important part of her beauty and yet her eyes were closed in the photo--but still her face is incredible." 11x14 silver gelatin print (unframed) / Limited Edition print.

More information about photographer SID AVERY: (1918 - 2002) In the fifties, a new style of glamour photography was seen. The fans wanted to look behind the façade. There was a desire to know what the stars were like in their private lives. “Candid” was the word in vogue. Periodicals like LIFE and Look set the tone, and The Saturday Evening Post and Photoplay adopted the new trend for their glamour spreads. One of the most successful among the photographers specializing in this new approach was SID AVERY. The established stars, used to the old system, were not easily convinced to let a photographer document them in their unvarnished private lives, but Avery succeeded where others failed—he managed to get in where no one else could—and he soon became the man magazine editors and art directors called on for their candid photo layouts. At an early age, Sid was introduced to photography by his uncle, Max Tatch, a landscape and architectural photographer. “He invited me into the darkroom to watch him print,” Avery remembers vividly. “I stood on a little box so I could see into the tray. I saw him put a piece of paper in what I thought was water, and all of a sudden this magic thing happened—a beautiful image began to appear. That experience stuck with me for a long time.” After graduating from Roosevelt High School, Sid landed a job a Morgan’s Camera store on Sunset Boulevard. Here he felt right in the center of the action. The shop was located near the old NBC studios, and served as a gathering spot for many well-known photographers, including some from LIFE magazine. After taking evening classes at Art Center and working for a period as a darkroom assistant, Sid went out on his own. Among Avery’s first odd jobs was that of taking glamour shots of the chorus girls at Earl Carroll’s Vanities and the Florentine Gardens. Who knows where this road would have taken him, but then Uncle Sam intervened—Avery was drafted into the Army. For most this would have been a setback—for Avery it turned out to be a godsend. He was assigned to the Signal Corps and selected to receive six months of training at LIFE in New York before being sent overseas. Stationed in London, he was placed in charge of the Army Pictorial Service Laboratory, where all the still and combat footage coming out of the European theater passed through his hands. During his stay in London he not only survived Hitler’s bombs, but managed to marry an English girl, Diana Berliner, who eventually became the mother of the couple’s three children, and a much-appreciated partner in Avery’s career as manager and promoter of his talent. When Avery returned to Hollywood after the war, he was ready for the photo journalism boom. While glamour photography in the twenties and thirties would often attain a very high degree of artistic sophistication, this aspect had to give way in the more immediate, less staged—or most often unstaged—approach. This is not to say that Avery’s photographs lack artistic quality. The inference is rather that the candid type of image could never be built in the same deliberate and time-consuming way as the studio shoot. Regardless, Avery’s work displays a remarkably high degree of refinement, effective but subtle lighting, and composition as good as you could expect in the often cramped settings—all ample proof of Avery’s mastery of the craft. But Avery’s most effective tool was not his technical skill as a photographer, but his personality. His friendly, unassuming style put his subjects at ease and made them open up. An anecdote from Avery’s rich memory bank serves to illustrate the point. He had been pleading for weeks with the elusive Marlon Brando to get a few minutes of his time. When he finally agreed, Avery was invited to Brando’s little rented house on Beverly Glen—which was mess. But Avery turned this problematic situation into an opportunity, and the result was one of his most unique images—of the mercurial Brando carrying out his trash. “Understand, I didn’t stage that situation,” Avery remembers. “I didn’t say to him, ‘Hey, will you take the trash out?’ I happened to walk into his kitchen, and it was waist-high in crap—paper, cartons, bottles, ants, roaches, you name it. I didn’t say anything, just kept working with him in other parts of the house. And then I said casually, ‘You know, I’d love to get some shots of you in the kitchen, but it’s such a goddamn mess, I can’t get in there. Would you do me a favor and clean it up?’ So he and a friend he was playing chess with worked for half an hour cleaning up that kitchen. And every time he carried out a box of trash, I took pictures. But he was really doing something. It wasn’t a fabricated situation.” When television finally put the picture magazines out of business in the sixties, Avery decided to switch to advertising photography. At first, he found the going tough, but step by step—with the help of his wife / manager—he began getting assignments, and once he had a foot in the door he never looked back. He eventually became one of the top advertising photographers in Los Angeles. Avery next took the leap from advertising still photography into directing television commercials, a field he soon mastered equally well, receiving numerous awards. Who can forget the Chrysler Cordoba commercials with Ricardo Montalban and his “Corinthian leather” line? In the eighties, Avery redirected his energies toward preserving the history of Hollywood as depicted in still photography, founding the non-profit Hollywood Photographers Archive. Eventually comprising some 150,000 photographs, the archive was in 1987 donated to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts. Avery then began rebuilding the collection under its present name, the Motion Picture and Television Photo Archive (mptv Images), representing over fifty of Hollywood’s best-known photographers. The organization serves the television and publishing industry, making the work of these photographers available for use in books, magazines, advertising and documentaries, as well as offering prints to a growing audience of collectors. His photographs have been exhibited all over the world, from Australia to Japan to England and throughout Europe less

HOW TO MAKE YOUR HOME LOOK EXPENSIVE | AFFORDABLE LUXURY We all dream of a luxurious, expensive looking home, yet it can often feel unattainable without a huge budget. We're here to tell you the idea that something actually needs to be expensive in order to look and feel expensive is a total myth. When it comes to making your home look expensive, often less is more. If you've seen glimpses of Kim Kardashian's $60million mansion, you'll know what we mean - it's like nobody even lives there! While we're not suggesting that you need to hide or throw out all of your belongings and cover up every ounce of life with a minimal beige, we do think that expensive-looking, minimalist design can work for most budgets, helping to achieve an expensive look akin to a hotel room. Contempee is the home of minimal and modern home decor, providing beautiful finishing touches that bring your space to life. We pride ourselves on offering affordable luxury, stunning pieces that elevate your home making it look and feel expensive without a hefty price tag. We believe that it's all about the finishing touches. Indeed, they make your home look “finished”, which in turn helps it look more expensive. You can use finishing touches to create a cohesive feel throughout your home by bringing similar pieces into each room. Tying the home together in this way brings everything into balance, making it look expensive. While we love our finishing touches, from faux floral arrangements to statement vasesfluffy pampas grass, we're offering you a few more tips for making your living space feel expensive on a budget. Here's 10 tips for how to make home look expensive: PAINT A fresh coat of paint is a relatively cheap and easy way to make your house look fresher, crisper and newer. As we live in our home day in and day out, it's hard to notice paint fading. It's only when it's time for a re-fresh and we add a tester to the wall that we see how much it has discoloured. If you have a room that's looking a little dull and dated, a simple lick of paint can do the trick, elevating the space and making it look more expensive.
So our first tip, paint walls and try out lots of different paint colors. Dark walls can add an element of drama and luxury, so don't shy away from dark paint colors! While you're at it, we also recommend you paint doors and wall trim, so everything looks fresh. FIND YOUR STYLE AND STICK TO IT 
 Many of us have many different interior styles that we like to draw inspiration from. While it is hard to pick just one, doing so will help to create a cohesive home that feels high-end and luxurious. If every room has a different style, your home can feel mis-matched and confusing and dare we say it, cheap. Finding your style and sticking to it throughout the house is the way to go - it makes such a difference. This doesn't mean you can't draw inspiration from different places, but that you shouldn't have starkly contrasting styles - for example, a white, minimalist kitchen and a moody, maximalist guest bedroom. It's all about cohesion! You can then add your personality with home decor accents. MAKE BOLD STATEMENTS 
 Nothing says expensive like bold, brave statements to create a focal point. You can make a statement in pretty much anyway you can think of, and even rather boring, mundane elements of your home can become a statement. (For example, a light fitting, picture frames or window treatments). Contempee's favourite way to make a bold statement is with large wall art. Our framed canvas collection adds an element of luxury to any home and with modern, abstract designs. As they create a stunning statement and focal point to your room, they certainly make your house look more expensive. Opting for large framed canvases over prints creates a high-end feel for that same luxury hotel feeling. To go the extra mile, you can even add picture lights to illuminate your artwork. CLEAN AND DE-CLUTTER 
 This one is simple, but having a clutter-free and clean home can make your house look more expensive. Think Kim K's mansion. We know this can be difficult, especially if you have young children with lots of toys. We recommend looking into innovative storage solutions that keep visible clutter to a minimum. These don't have to be expensive, with Ikea providing plenty of affordable options. It's worth investing so that you have a proper place to keep your things. Another way you can do this is to remove visual clutter and
