ORPHEE, JEAN MARAIS - Photos by Roger CORBEAU Jean Marais, Roger Blin, and other extras, a scene from Jean Cocteau’s film, 1950. 2 vintage silver gelatin prints, with the photographer’s stamp partially or completely obscured on the reverse and annotated on both. 23 x 17.3 cm each, including white margins. Note: Set of two photographs depicting Jean Marais, Roger Blin, and several extras in a scene from *Orphée*, a film directed by Jean Cocteau and released in 1950. Considered one of the masterpieces of French poetic cinema, this film transposes the ancient myth of Orpheus into a modern world imbued with surrealism and symbolism. Jean Marais, Cocteau’s collaborator and muse, delivers one of his most famous performances in the film. The photographs were taken by Roger Corbeau, a leading photographer of 20th-century French cinema and theater, renowned for his portraits and on-set shots. These vintage prints related to *Orphée* and bearing Roger Corbeau’s stamp are of particular interest to collectors of arthouse cinema and French photography.
