<B>Natacha Rambova Color Sketch for "Salome."</B></I> The Holy Bible meets Roaring '20s Art Deco in this original Rambova art creation, designed for <I>Salome,</B></I> the notorious 1923 film that starred Rambova's alleged lover, Alla Nazimova, in the title role. It's a spectacular, full color sketch of a naked Salome, on profile (her best side no doubt), carrying the severed head of John the Baptist on a platter. Wonderful use of color (Salome's eye-makeup alone is a spectacle), as she slinks before a blue curtain backdrop and traipses barefoot on a black and white checkerboard floor. The actual picture measures approximately 7" x 9", with some impromptu scribbles en verso; border damage doesn't affect the actual artwork. Overall Very Fine condition. A sensual showcase of Rambova's artistic gifts (and possibly her private fascinations), and a superb piece of baroque Hollywood depravity, silent screen style.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
