About the Item

Silver print, titled (verso) by Paul Cadmus, 11cm x 13cm, (33cm x 38cm framed). the work is framed behind museum quality non-reflective UV glass. In 1937, the painters, Paul Cadmus, Jared French and Margaret French began to experiment with a camera during summers on Fire Island, Provincetown and New York. They studied themselves and their friends over a period of 20 years. As Cadmus years later recounted, 'After we'd been working most of the day, we'd go out late afternoons and take photographs when the light was best. They were just playthings. We would hand out these little photographs when we went to dinner parties, like playing cards' (Jerry Rosco, Glenway Wescott Personally: A Biography, p. 78). Photographs by PaJaMa are rare as they were printed and gifted sparingly. This images depicts Jared French, known to them as Jerry.

George Valentine Dureau was an American artist whose long career was most notable for charcoal sketches and black and white photography of poor white and black athletes, dwarfs, and amputees. Robert Mapplethorpe is said to have been inspired by Dureau's amputee and dwarf photographs, which showed the figures as "exposed and vulnerable, playful and needy, complex and entirely human individuals." Some of his pieces are held at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art. Several of his works are displayed publicly throughout New Orleans, most notably, the pediment sculpture for Harrah's New Orleans, and his cast-bronze sculptures stand sentinel at the entrance gates of New Orleans City Park...
