Signed Photograph in "Lucifer"
Original photograph of the great dancer in Martha Graham's "Lucifer" in 1975, boldly signed at the lower left. Photographed by Louis Péres. In very fine condition. 7 x 9.5 inches (17.9 x 23.8 cm).Graham choreographed "Lucifer" for a gala performance celebrating the 50-year anniversary of her company in 1975. "He is not Satan," explained Graham. "He is the Promethean figure who brought light, fire. When he fell from heaven through pride he ceased to be a god. I felt curious, explosive self-mockery was a part of Lucifer and a part of my life and Rudolf's too." (14255)
