Elizabeth Taylor 1958 Actress with Mike Todd at premiere of ballet " Broken Date"
In 1957 Elizabeth Taylor divorced from her second husband Michael Wilding and announced her engagement to the producer Mike Todd. Here they are pictured jetting off to Nice. Tragically Todd was killed in a plane crash only a year into their marriage. At the age of only 26 Taylor was already twice divorced and now a glamourous widow.
Elizabeth Taylor in her prime was without doubt one of the worlds most beautiful and glamorous women. She still is one of the richest, most married, most famous and sadly most tragic figures of the twentieth century. As an actress what she lacked in skill she made up for in presence and passion. Indeed, more than made up for as she won two Best Actress Oscars. Her eight marriages, including two to Richard Burton were all public affairs. The scandal and intrigue was played out in the divorce courts, if not the press. The one exception being her 1957 marriage to Mike Todd as he was tragically killed in a plane crash only a year after they announced their engagement. Her marriages to Richard Burton were subjected to the most public scrutiny largely because the pair played their relationship out on the silver screen in movies such as " Whos Afraid of Virginia Woolf?". The actress went on to launch her own range of cosmetics, a move that has earned her millions of dollars. Her later years have been plagued with illness, including a massive brain tumor and Taylor has become something of a recluse on her massive mansion estate

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Elizabeth Taylor in 1958, accompanied by her third husband, Mike Todd, at the premiere of the ballet "Broken Date". At only 26 years old, Taylor had already experienced two divorces and now found herself a glamorous widow after Todd's tragic death in a plane crash just one year into their marriage. Elizabeth Taylor was not only known for her beauty and glamour but also for being one of the most famous and richest women of her time. Despite any perceived lack of acting skill, she possessed an undeniable presence and passion that earned her two Best Actress Oscars. Her personal life was equally as dramatic as her on-screen performances, with eight marriages including two to Richard Burton. The media frenzy surrounding Taylor's relationships reached its peak during her marriages to Burton. Their tumultuous love affair played out both on screen in films like "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" and off screen through highly publicized divorce proceedings. In addition to her successful acting career, Elizabeth Taylor ventured into business by launching her own line of cosmetics which brought immense financial success. However, as time went on, health issues plagued Taylor's later years including a massive brain tumor. She retreated from public life becoming somewhat reclusive within the confines of her vast mansion estate. This print serves as a poignant reminder of Elizabeth Taylor's enduring beauty and complex personal journey throughout the twentieth century.
