Letter to Audrey Withers

Typescript letter in which Beaton offers his apologies for the unsatisfactory photographs he produced for the April issue, yet nevertheless defends his actions. He suggests that, however unsuccessful the results of the feature were perceived to have been, the detailed explanations he presents in his letter should indicate that "they were not brought about by any lack of integrity or interest on [his] part". Beaton agrees that it would be better if the magazine ceased to offer him such sittings and allowed him to continue with his interest in fashion photography elsewhere.

Beaton, Sir Cecil Walter Hardy (1904-1980) Knight, photographer
