MARCEL VERTES - Lot 83
MARCEL VERTES Painting a set (location unidentified), 1940s. Photograph, silver print on vintage card stock, unmarked on the back. 13.7 x 23.2 cm. Signs of handling. Note: This photograph shows Marcel Vertès at work on a set in the 1940s, illustrating the diversity of activities undertaken by this artist of Hungarian origin who had settled in Paris. A draftsman, painter, illustrator, and set designer, Vertès distinguished himself in both the graphic arts and the worlds of entertainment, theater, and cinema. His elegant and witty style, often associated with Parisian life and its characters, earned him international recognition. This image captures a particularly fascinating moment of creativity, revealing the artist at work as a set designer. It thus serves as an evocative testament to the close ties that bound the visual arts, theater, and the performing arts in the mid-20th century.
