Description

Marlene Dietrich by Eugene Robert Richee (Paramount, 1935). Portrait (8" X 10").
Vintage black and white, single weight, glossy still. Marlene Dietrich has commented that the studio portrait images of her were of equal if not greater importance to her than her films. She was always conscious of her public image, and with the guidance of Josef von Sternberg and Eugene Richee, she created an iconic image of mystery and sophistication that defined Hollywood glamour in her day. It has made her stills some of the most highly sought after by collectors, and this beautifully lit image is a perfect example of the artistry they were striving for. The still has corner creases and light handling wear. Fine/Very Fine.
