Exhibition & Auction: The Eye of LIFE
This November, the LIFE Picture Collection—in collaboration with Cornette de Saint-Cyr Auction House, Bring It To Light Agency, and Philippe Labro—will host an exhibition and live online auction of nearly two hundred unique photographs. This will mark the first auction of modern LIFE prints in Europe.
This sale of 191 photographs is a unique selection of works by some sixty LIFE photographers from 1930 to the end of the twentieth century, including Margaret Bourke-White, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Andreas Feininger, and Gjon Mili. Each photograph will be a limited edition of one with a special embossed stamp. The black and white prints are all made exclusively using the archival piezography process and printed on Hahnemühle paper.

LIFE: Sean Connery
No name is more synonymous with suave sophistication and danger than James Bond.
To celebrate this iconic character, LIFE pays tribute to all the actors who have portrayed Bond. A special section on the history of the Bond franchise provides rare photographs from on the set and off and yields inside intelligence on each film’s behind-the-scenes politics, business deals, and casting calls.
Plus: an essay by TIME’s acclaimed film and culture critic Richard Corliss examines how Bond reflects and influences the world at large.
