Never before seen pics of Liz Taylor show superstar's behind the scenes looks

With those startling violet eyes and stunning looks, Elizabeth Taylor oozed old-style glamour and was the definition of a true Hollywood superstar.

She was never far from a camera lens and thousands of pictures were taken of her.

But here she is, amazingly, as you’ve never seen her before.

London-born Liz, who would win two Oscars, was a child of the studio system who made her debut at 10 in the golden era of Hollywood.

Liz would become as famous for her colourful love life as she was for her 47 films. She wed eight times, twice to actor Richard Burton.

Now, in Forever Elizabeth, publishers Iconic Images and ACC Art Books are presenting previously unseen work by eight top photographers lucky enough to capture the star at different moments of her life.

Their photos capture this screen legend on film sets, at fashion shoots and behind-the-scenes.

And as these sensational shots show, the lure of Liz was hard to resist.
