MIRNA LOY - Lot 5
MIRNA LOY Hollywood - Warner Bros. Fashion portrait (photomontage featuring a snakeskin shoe and a lizard), 1920s. Photograph, vintage silver gelatin print, captioned on the back. 20.2 x 25.6 cm, including white borders. Two corner tips have been touched up (one is hardened, and the second has a slight tear). Note: A future star of Hollywood’s Golden Age, Myrna Loy appears here in a photomontage that is as daring as it is unusual. The combination of the snakeskin shoe and the lizard plays with the conventions of fashion and exoticism, showcasing the visual inventiveness of 1920s advertising photography.
