The image of Marlene Dietrich above is a recent EBay acquisition of mine…a poster for a 1970’s exhibition in Italy of Cecil Beaton photographs.
The poster is approximately 24″ x 36″, in very good condition, reasonably priced…and I couldn’t resist…

Ah, I see now! This is a beautiful poster. I rarely come across profile photos of Dietrich. She has a neck like a gazelle’s.
What you can’t really see here is that the fingers of her right hand are touching what looks like a classical figurine. Dietrich had such a beautiful face that I doubt many thought to photograph her in profile – but she photographed wonderfully from every angle, it seems.
That is stunning! Congratulations!
