Jean Cocteau

I prepared for you a selection of artworks by the genious Jean Cocteau (1889-1963). I hope you like it!

The book contains 140 of his most beautiful works from four decades, most of wich are published for the first time.

Enveloped in a nimbus of immorality, he had a way of continually provoking the cultural authorities and astounding the public with his inexhaustible creativity.

Jean Cocteau openly acknowledged the homosexuality, he lived out to the full and expressed in his erotic drawings.

"As far back as I can remember, I can find traces of my love for boys. I always preferred the strong sex, which I think may legitimately be called the fair sex."

See you next time :)
