About the Item

Miles Davis, 1950 - Bob Willoughby (Portrait Photography) Worldwide Shipping Available Signed by Christopher Willoughby, executor of the Estate, inscribed with title and photographer's copyright information, numbered and stamped with photographer's estate copyright ink stamp on reverse. American photographer Bob Willoughby (1927-2009) had a photographic career that coincided with the Golden Age of film. As the first on set film photographer, Willoughby revolutionised the documentation of Hollywood. Willoughby was the first 'outside’ photographer employed by studios to document the making of films. His work forms a visual who’s who of cinema, rock and jazz music, theatre and dance over 20 years. Iconic images of a multitude of stars from the 1950s and 60s, including Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft on the set of The Graduate, Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra casually playing Blackjack at the Sands Hotel, Las Vegas, Audrey Hepburn between takes on the set of My Fair Lady, Chet Baker recording the music for My Funny Valentine and the great saxophonist Big Jay McNeely in concert. Both a star behind the camera and technical innovator in front of it, Willoughby’s photographs were never out of print during his 20 year career in films. Available in four sizes: 16 × 20 in (40.6 × 50.8 cm) 20 × 24 in (50.8 × 61 cm) 30 × 40 in (76.2 × 101.6 cm) 40 × 60 in (101.6 × 152.4 cm)
