About the Item

Lena Horne is a silver gelatin print created in 2004 from a 1982 negative. An example of this photographic portrait is owned by the Smithsonian for their National Portrait Gallery who holds a complete set of the entire Song portfolio. Scavullo's 2004 retrospective Song portfolio included ten portraits in all - Cher, Sting, Diana Ross, Janis Joplin, Bernadette Peters, Mick Jagger, Luciano Pavarotti, Ravi Shankar, Deborah Harry and Lena Horne. The Song Portfolio was approved by Scavullo prior to his passing in 2004 and the print was created from the original, un-retouched negative. The print is stamped verso with the imprimatur of the Scavullo Foundation and signed by Sean Byrnes, President of the Scavullo Foundation, and hand-numbered 75/150. From the total edition of 214 (there were also 45 APs and 5 BATs, plus 14 other unsigned specimens). Framed in a contemporary, black frame. Scavullo began his career at Vogue magazine, working alongside Cecil Beaton, John Rawlings, and Horst P. Horst, whom he assisted for three years. He went on to become a renowned fashion photographer himself and produced the covers for Cosmopolitan for thirty years. "I get a kick out of photography. I love it. I live for it. I don't look back. I don't look ahead. I just look around." - Francesco Scavullo
