A photographic volume devoted to the visual culture and personalities of the 1960s, this book presents Jean-Marie Périer’s portraits and candid images from a decade of major social, artistic, and popular-cultural change. Centered on celebrity portraiture, it brings together photographs that reveal both the public image and private atmosphere surrounding figures associated with music, cinema, fashion, and the arts. The title suggests a personal record of the author’s experiences during the period, making the book more than a simple image collection: it functions as a visual memoir shaped by Périer’s access, timing, and eye for character. Its 1960s focus and emphasis on portraiture make it especially relevant to readers interested in photography, celebrity culture, and the visual history of the era.
