MAGAZINE "In her new book Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc: A Timeless Legend on the French Riviera (Flammarion), Alexandra Campbell showcases the legendary property in Antibes along the French Riviera in all its glory. . .While Oetker Collection, which manages the hotel, has renovated and modernized over its illustrious history, the property has never lost its heart and soul--or popularity." --DUJOUR.COM "For more than a century, the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc on the French Riviera has stood as the pinnacle of luxury resort destinations. It's been the setting of an enchanting Karl Lagerfeld-helmed Chanel runway show, the site of glamorous Hollywood-style parties, and the location of Natalie Portman's drama-filled Dior commercials. It's been captured in photographs by Slim Aarons, literature by F. Scott Fitzgerald, and sketches by Pablo Picasso. Now a massive new tome is exploring the history and heritage of the resort, even predating its construction when Cap d'Antibes was a wonderland recreated in the romantic paintings of Claude Monet and Paul Signac. Hotel du Cap Eden Roc: A Timeless Legend on the French Riviera (Flammarion) by Alexandra Campbell with an introduction by former Vanity Fair editor in chief, Graydon Carter, follows the French Rivera's noble history through the Belle Epoque and Jazz Ages right up to the present day." --GALERIEMAGAZINE.COM
