The James Bond film series is well-known for its ground breaking film making. Since 1962, actors from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig all had the distinct pleasure to portray Ian Fleming's secret agent along with a variety of beautiful women. Some were innocent, some were naïve. Some were strong and determined; while some were the definition of evil.The beautiful women surrounding James Bond are as much as a trademark of the films as the gadgets, cars and stunning locations. They all help make the films the spectacular stories we love so dearly, and this book looks at these women from a different and creative perspective.Born in 1959 in Philadelphia, Jeff Marshall's creative philosophy is one of craftsmanship, attention to detail and a constant effort to develop fresh originality in each and every artistic realisation. After having graduated the Art Institute of Philadelphia, Marshall started working as a self-employed creative developer and project director. His love for film, and specifically the world of 007, brought him to the attention of EON Productions, producers of the Bond films, for which he created a line of limited edition James Bond lithographs in the 1990s. Jeff Marshall is well-known and appreciated within the 007 fan world, as he regularly supplies beautiful artwork for magazine and book covers.Beauty of Bond is the first publication to be completely dedicated to the artist and his work.
