Original Art from the Grand Age of American Illustration
This art deco stylized hatted view of Judy Garland was kept in the actress’s personal collection until her death. A charming portrait that showcases the joyful innocence which was essential to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s presentation of the icon (but which ran directly counter to her haunted personal life). This double weight, large format gallery portrait is a rarely seen still, and celebrates the style of the late 1930s as well as the unusual beauty of Garland.

A rare and exceedingly beautiful gelatin silver, double weight gallery photograph of film icon Judy Garland, by her favored MGM studio photographer Eric Carpenter. This image utilizes an art deco settee to capture a timeless and glamorous view of the young Garland. This double-weight photograph comes from the personal collection of Garland, and is stamped on verso by her estate as seen. This was hand printed by the photographer for the star, and photographs such as this were never intended for widespread distribution. This is a particularly captivating piece of fine art glamour photography, and captures a marquis film star by a top artist. We are pleased to be able to offer this wonderful photograph and many other large format vintage gallery portraits from the Golden age of Hollywood for sale exclusively through Grapefruit Moon Gallery.
