Charlie De Beistegui Portrait For Vogue Unframed

Don Carlos de Beistegui y de Yturbe (31 January 1895 – 17 January 1970), also known as Charlie de Beistegui, was an eccentric Spanish-French multi-millionaire art collector and interior decorator who was one of the most flamboyant characters of mid-20th-century European life. His ball at the Palazzo Labia in Venice in 1951 is still described as "the party of the century". He was often referred to as "The Count of Monte Cristo".

This printers proof came from Box Studios, NYC, a world famous design company run by Pascal Dangin, who designed and printed many works for world famous photographs and published several of his books under the label Steidl Dangin. Life Time magazine described Dangin as "the world's most sought-after photo retoucher (The photos whisperer)" and he was featured in a laudatory New Yorker profile in 2008. This photograph was in the company's inventory when they closed down their business.
