Light from Within

the long version

"Linda McCartney's last completed photographic project, Light from Within reveals her mastery of the medium. Documenting thirty years of her life, the photographs are witty, lyrical, and warmly personal.". "The images of Light from Within reflect Linda's wide range of passions and interests. The photographs chosen include portraits taken during her years as the Fillmore East photographer in the 1960s; more recent portraits of her family and illustrious friends; landscapes - some quietly lovely, some revealing a sense of irony - and finally, photographs from every era of her life that seize the passing moment and convey a spare beauty as well as Linda's own unique brand of surrealism. This personal collection is intuitive, poetic, and resonant with meaning. As Paul McCartney writes in his foreword, "the light from within shines out of every image.""--BOOK JACKET.
