Ernst Dryden's name is irrevocably linked with those of Bugatti, Cinzano, Hollywood and "Die Dame" - the German equivalent of "Vogue" - for which he was art director for many years. This is the story of an Austrian artist who travelled from Vienna and Berlin to Hollywood where he was a major force throughout the 1920s and 1930s. The book is compiled from Dryden's personal collection of over 4000 individual items. There are advertisements, posters from the First World War and costumes for the Hollywood stars, among them Marlene Dietrich, Dolores de Rio and Tilly Losch. Personal letters and photographs complete a collection which is as varied, prolific and exciting as Dryden's own career.
