In its heyday, Farley Farm, the Sussex hom of photographer Lee Miller and her husband, the Surrealist painter Roland Penrose, hosted some of the biggest names in twentieth-century art, including Picasso, Max Ernst, Man Ray, Joan Miro, Paul Eluard and Henry Moore. In this beautifully illustrated book, the Penroses' son Antony, tells the story of Farley Farm and its occupants, offering a personal account of growing up in the company of some of the most famous and flamboyant artists of the day. He also documents the internationally renowned collection of painting and sculpture that Miller and Penrose established at Farleys.
