Duncan, Isadora. (1877–1927)

Signed Photograph

Unusual original photograph of a sculpture of the great dancer and choreographer - one of the major inovators of the medium - signed by Duncan in black fountain pen ink. Duncan was a great influence on numerous artists in many mediums and was the subject of many important sculptures. The Musée Bourdelle in Paris has recently mounted an exposition titled "Isadora Duncan: Une Sculpteur Vivante" which included images of the present 1904 sculpture by Walter Schott. Original postcard photograph, 9 x 15 cm, somewhat silvered, mounting traces on verso, small surface tear, and with the start of the signature and inscription a bit smudged but otherwise good. (5826)
