Large Portrait Print
Original 1936 richly printed halftone Man Ray photograph of the composer removed from a vintage Esquire magazine issue. Titled: "ANTHEIL: A MAN RAY VIEW OF A MANY SIDED JACK OF ARTS," the text below the large image reads in full: "He's thirty-five now, who was l'enfant terrible of modern music at twenty-two; who has known everybody from Joyce, James to Joyce, Peggy; lived everywhere and done everything; had four different ballet premieres last season and three films, two of them by Hechat and MacArthur; has written two operas and is writing a third, has an eye on the opera-movie form next; has appeared all over Europe as a concert pianist; haunts shooting galleries and plays poker with reporters in police stations; lives in the Fifties just off Fifth; is sufficient psychologist to convince Miriam Hopkins that he is a phenomenal fortune teller; now brings to these pages his most consistently fascinating hobby, the parlor-bedroom-and-bath sport of amateur endocrinology." 9.75 x 13.75 inches (25 x 35 cm) and in fine condition.
