Est: $1,000 - $1,500
Walter Cohick Plunkett (California, New York, 1902-1982) Self Portrait 1958 The artist, famous Hollywood costume designer Walter Plunkett, depicts himself sitting on one leg, the other bent at the knee, in a chair with green pillow. He wears a tank wristwatch and a loose-fitting shirt open at the neck. Cup and saucers sit on an oddly elongated kidney-shape table centered by a green mid-century ash tray with cigarette butts. The background and side views are compressed, curved and lengthened. The perspective is skewed. The composition is convex as the artist portrays himself reflected in a silver coffee pot. The reflective body of the rounded pot forms a bent perspective. The base of the pot's handle is visible on the right. A section of the spout is seen on the left. The oil on canvas is signed in reverse lower right and dated 1958. Sight size measures 15.5 x 11.5 with a framed size of 22 x 18 inches.

Est: $4,500 - $5,000
Walter Plunkett (American; 1902-1982) "Scarlett in Red Dress" (Gone With the Wind Costume Design) Original Limited Edition Framed Lithograph Hand Signed & Numbered 502/1000 - This stunning and rare piece is an original costume design from Hollywood costume designer, Walter Plunkett. This piece is an original costume design from the iconic film "Gone With the Wind" worn by Vivien Leigh as "Scarlett O'Hara". This was the final design for the dress, and the one eventually used for the film. This costume is for the infamous red ballgown, worn to "Ashley Wilkes" birthday party, and is an important part of the film's plot. After rumors spread of Scarlett's inappropriate behavior spread around Atlanta, she tries to skip the birthday party but is forced to attend the party by her infuriated husband, who forces her to wear an ensemble that makes her a living embodiment of a "scarlet" woman. Her husband was an expert on women's clothes, and was trying to humiliate Scarlett with his choice of clothing. Scarlett's red ballgown would not have been appropriate attire for a birthday party, as viewers can easily tell from the dresses the other women were wearing. Plunkett's design for the red ballgown is both a beautifully crafted example of the Gilded Age style, and an important symbolic moment in the movie's plot. The lithograph is hand signed in pencil, and is numbered 502/1000. The piece is in excellent condition, and has been professionally framed. The piece (including the frame) measures 21" x 17". Walter Plunkett was a prolific costume designer who worked on more than 150 projects throughout his career in the Hollywood film industry.
