    Film Photography: Marlene Dietrich as Concha Perez in "The Devil is a Woman"

    Est: €1,900 - €2,000

    Photographer: Don English (1901-1964), art direction: Josef von Sternberg. Marlene Dietrich (1901-1992) as Concha Perez in "The Devil is a Woman". 1935. Oversized vintage gelatin silver print. 35,4 x 28 cm. Annotated in pencil on the verso. "The Devil is a Woman" is the last film in which Dietrich worked together with von Sternberg who so successfully photographed and molded her image. Some critics have pointed to the parallels between the Sternberg/Dietrich relationship and the Don Pasqual (Lionel Atwill)/Concha Perez (Dietrich) relationship in the film. The film and publicity stills show the trademark qualities of the Sternberg/Dietrich collaboration: extraordinary attention to lighting, costume and art direction. – Corners bumped, creases in corners, some stronger in lower right, a few handling marks in upper and lower right, some spots of surface glue residue, only visible at an angle, otherwise a fine tonal print in good condition. - Sollten Sie detailliertere Zustandsberichte wünschen, kontaktieren Sie uns bitte. / Should you need more detailed condition reports, please contact us.
