Miss Mary Philips
Item Description
Old and original print of a stunningly good sketch of the American stage and screen actress Mary Philips by the artist Paul Helleu.
Dating from 1921, when she was just 20 years of age and in the very early stages of her career, this image captures her so well. She has a very individual look, with beautiful blue eyes which fix the viewer with a steady gaze. It's easy to see how the actor Humphrey Bogart fell in love with her a very few years later.
This picture has a certain something and on display catches most people's attention very quickly. Around 42 X 31 cm overall size.
