'Lillie Langtry II' - A signed, limited edition print by Sir Peter Blake.

To celebrate the life and style of Jersey-born Lillie Langtry, CCA Galleries International proudly showcases this series of 3 limited edition prints by famous British Pop artist, Sir Peter Blake. The digital prints incorporate silkscreen colours and glazes as well as dazzling diamond dust.

Born Emilie Charlotte le Breton in St Saviour’s Rectory, Jersey, Lillie Langtry went on to become a great society beauty and later a well-known actress. Lillie Langtry went from having just one dress to being acknowledged as a leader of fashion, from being socially inept to societies 'must have', and when she lost favour with the Prince of Wales she re-invented herself as an actress on the advice of her friend, Sarah Bernhardt. Lillie used her on-stage and off-stage fame to endorse cosmetics such as Pears Soap. Throughout her life, Lillie Langtry began to understand the importance of fashion for creating both her public appearance and her stage persona.
