Pre-Code Joan Crawford

Artist:George Hurrell
Date:1932
Medium:Gelatin Silver on Double Weight Photostock
Dimensions:10" x 13"
Condition:Excellent
Original Use:Hollywood Glamour Art

In an unusual blonde hatted view, Joan Crawford is captured with all her captivating glory by the master of Hollywood photography George Hurrell. In a gentle sepia on large format double weight semi-gloss paperstock, the young Joan Crawford shows off her effortless art deco style and emboldened flapper sensibility. This is blindstamped by Hurrell lower right, and inkstamped on verso, a hand printed gallery portrait never intended for distribution, and is a moving rare portrait.
