Seller's Description:
Veronica Lake, 1939
Gelatin Silver Print
11.25 x 10.25 in (28.5 x 26 cm)
As a staff photographer for Harper's Bazaar from 1936 through 1958, Louise Dahl-Wolfe introduced a witty, relaxed, and natural aspect to fashion photography and, in the process, helped "define the post-war look of American women." She also made memorable portrait photographs of leading figures from politics and the arts, "discovered" a teenage Lauren Bacall, and was a pioneer in the technique of color photography. Here we have a photograph of popular American film actress and pinup model, Veronica Lake. Lake received both popular and critical acclaim, most notably for her femme fatale roles in noir films with Alan Ladd during the 1940s. A stray lock of her shoulder-length blonde hair during a publicity photo shoot led to her iconic peekaboo hairstyle, which hid one eye, and was widely imitated.
