Tamara de Lempicka

Self Portrait in the Green Bugatti, 1925

Both an artist and a glamour star, Tamara de Lempicka (1898-1980) was the image of the independent woman at her time. She was the most fashionable portrait painter of her generation and she was surrounded by great men of letters.
Tamara was also part of the parisian bohemian life, she enjoyed a frenetic social life, full of scandals and eccentricities but most of all, she was passionate about her work.
