Romance features iconic couples such as Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton; familiar faces including Paul Newman, Judy Garland, Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman and Princess Diana; silver screen romances from Out of Africa, Moulin Rouge or Titanic; and never-before-seen images, this book showcases Kirkland’s magnificent appetite for love, joy and the beauty of human connection. Kirkland’s photographs celebrate love in all its forms—playful, tender and enduring—reflecting passion, affection and companionship across generations.
