This is Lagerfeld's own album of the photographic stories and sequences that he created between the mid 1980s and the early 1990s, shot in black and white, often with models and costumes. His photos are at once beautifully composed, stylish, sensuous, full of fantasy and literary references, as well as depicting portraiture, landscape and architecture, such as the baroque stagings of Dangerous Liasons and Afternoon of a Faun; or other stories showcasing actress Emma Thompson performing a homage to the choreographer Mary Wigman, and Helena Bonham-Carter playing Cinderella.
