by Cecil Beaton

Beaton travelled widely in the East as a war photographer (recording his experiences in Near East, 1943, and Far East, 1945). He returned with art treasures and notebooks full of sketches which he used when creating the designs for Puccini's last opera Turandot for the Metropolitan Opera, New York in 1961. It was also staged at Covent Garden in 1963.
