About the Item

Elizabeth Taylor in Yellow with Ivy, Side 3 -- Mark Shaw was sent by LIFE to photograph Elizabeth Taylor for the April 28, 1961 issue. The images he took were never used for the article that celebrated her acceptance of the Oscar for best actress of 1960 for her role as a semi-pro call girl in the movie Butterfield 8. Shaw’s stunning portraits show Taylor in her Oscar ceremony finery, a dress called “Soiree a Rio” from Dior’s Spring-Summer 1961 Haute Couture collection. Image size is 10" x 10" (for 11" x 17" paper size). All Mark Shaw prints are made to order in limited editions on Hahnemuhle photo rag paper. Each print is Estate stamped on the back and signed and numbered by David Shaw, and accompanied by a letter of authenticity. Lead time is four to six weeks, but we often receive them sooner. *Please note this image is available in several sizes. Prices increase as editions sell out. Fashion photography of Elizabeth Taylor. She is standing and turns her head to her left to face the camera. She keeps her hands in front of her by her waist. She does not smile. She is wearing a yellow dress with flower designs on the bottom skirt. There is a pink flower on her waist. This is an outdoor photograph. Behind her is a wall of green ivy leaves.

  • Pool at Lake Tahoe, Estate Edition, Tahoe Tavern in the Sierra Nevada Mountains
    By Slim Aarons
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Bathers by a pool at the Tahoe Tavern on the shore of Lake Tahoe, California, 1959. Immerse yourself in the nostalgic allure of Slim Aarons' 'Lake Tahoe Pool,' a stunning estate photograph that captures the essence of 1950s summer leisure at the Tahoe Tavern, California. This piece is a window into a bygone era, where bathers bask by a dazzling turquoise pool, framed by the towering majesty of pine trees, with the Sierra Nevada mountains and the pristine waters of Lake Tahoe forming a breathtaking backdrop. This idyllic scene is adorned with vintage holidaymakers lounging under chic fringed pastel umbrellas, embodying the effortless style and elegance that Aarons is renowned for. The tranquil poolside setting, framed by nature's grandeur, creates a captivating contrast between serene relaxation and the wild beauty of the Californian landscape. Slim Aarons Pool at Lake Tahoe Printed later Collector gets the next number in the edition Over the course of a career lasting half a century, Slim Aarons (1916-2006) portrayed high society, aristocracy, authors, artists, business icons, the celebrated and their milieu. In doing so, he captured a golden age of wealth, privilege, beauty and leisure that occurred alongside—but quite separate from—the cultural and political backdrop of the second half of the Twentieth Century. The Slim Aarons Estate has released the limited Estate edition as a Lambda print, which is a modern c-type prints. They have chosen Lambda prints for their sharpness, clarity, colour saturation and quality, compared to archival inkjet prints. Lambda printing gives true continuous tone. Photograph is unframed Slide show includes a close-up of the Slim Aarons estate's stamp. Collector will get the next number in the edition * We are pleased to offer the entire archive of the Slim Aarons Estate, offering the official Slim Aarons Estate Edition (only offered in this edition of 150).
