Seller's Description
Original Italian 9 1/4 inch x 6 3/4 inch Still of MARTINE CAROL in the 1955 Max Ophüls Romantic Drama LOLA MONTES, based on the novel "La vie extraordinaire de Lola Montès" Cécil Saint Laurent.
Lola Montès is a visually ravishing, narratively daring dramatization of the life of the notorious courtesan and showgirl, played by Martine Carol. With his customary cinematographic flourish and, for the first time, vibrant color, Max Ophuls charts the course of Montès’s scandalous past through the invocations of the bombastic ringmaster (Peter Ustinov) of the American circus where she has ended up performing. Ophuls’s final film, Lola Montès is at once a magnificent romantic melodrama, a meditation on the lurid fascination with celebrity, and a one-of-a-kind movie spectacle. (Criterion)
Still by Raymond Voinquel (1912 - 1994). Voinquel worked on over 150 films from 1930. Famous for his cinema portraits, he produced photographic work which has continued to influence contemporary photographers, from Robert Mapplethorpe to Herb Ritts.
The still is in fine condition.
