HARPO MARX - Lot 59
HARPO MARX
Playing the harp and dressed in 18th-century style during the filming of Charles Reisner’s movie “The Big Store” — “The Marx (Brothers) at the Department Store,” 1941.
Photograph, vintage silver print, annotated on the back.
25.8 x 20.5 cm, including white borders.
Note: Photograph depicting Harpo Marx playing the harp, dressed in an 18th-century-inspired costume, during the filming of *The Big Store* (The Marx Brothers at the Department Store), a film directed by Charles Reisner and released in 1941. A member of the famous Marx Brothers alongside Groucho, Chico, and Zeppo, Harpo Marx remains one of the most distinctive figures in classic American comedy thanks to his silent, whimsical, and poetic character. His harp playing, a regular feature in the Marx Brothers’ films, is one of the most iconic aspects of his on-screen persona. *The Big Store* is among the group’s last major productions during MGM’s golden age. Period stills from the film’s production featuring the Marx Brothers are particularly sought after by collectors of Hollywood slapstick cinema.
