Etienne de Beaumont

Vogue anglais, août 1925, vol.66, n°4 (p.54: "Men of Mark in Modern Paris" - "Le Comte Etienne de Beaumont may be described as an amateur impresario of genius. He brings the magnificence of a Grand Seigneur to the patronage of all that is liveliest in modern art. Encouraged by the success of his private entertainments, he produced for charity a number of ballets and plays in 1924 in public at the Cigale Theatre, and he has now directed the making of a film showing the same tendencies as contemporary literature and painting.")

Vogue anglais, janvier 1926, vol.67, n°2 (p.58: "Comte Etienne de Beaumont, who organised at the Cigale the "Soirées de Paris", has recently shown one of his new "surréalist" pictures, "A quoi rêvent les jeunes films?" for the Film Society. In the course of his interesting cinematographic experiment he makes considerable use of the rayographs of Mr. Man Ray. Four photographs taken from this film are shown on the opposite page.")
