Description
16" (41 cm.) x 13" photograph. 24" x 20" mounted. A vibrant color photograph of Shirley Temple in semi-side pose, her head inclined back with flowing long curls, side-glancing eyes, wide smile with defined dimples, her left hand held to her chin. Her engagement and wedding rings are evident on her ring finger, and on that same wrist she wears the diamond wrist watch gifted to her by her father in 1939 (#24 of this catalog). The photograph is signed Omnicolor; that process system had been patented in 1940, its aim to achieve depth of color in photography. Circa 1945.
