Luchino Visconti and Rina Morelli on the set of "The Leopard"
Rome: Titanus, 1963. Vintage photograph from the set of the 1963 film. A shot of Visconti working with actress Ida Galli on the set, the former with a bellows and the latter with a parasol. With provenance as to photograph's vintage on the verso: a rubber-stamped coat of arms made for the film, the Pathe-Titanus productions stamp (the film was an Italy-France co-production), and a stamp for Parimage, a French press agency.
A lovely, candid moment from Visconti's classic homage to the Sicilian aristocracy of the mid-nineteenth century.
9 x 7 inches. Fine.
