About the Item

Original linen-backed Secret Ceremony vintage film poster. French, archival linen backed in fine condition, ready to frame. A woman and the girl she insists is her long-lost daughter are caught in a web of insanity and deception. An aging prostitute and a young, aimless waif resemble each other's dead mother and dead daughter, respectively, and the relationship goes on, strangely, from there. This original big-screen version is good Freudian psycho-drama. Directed By: Joseph Losey Starring: Elizabeth Taylor, Mia Farrow, Robert Mitchum. Secret Ceremony was promoted as a kinky psychodrama with lesbian overtones and such tag lines as "It's time to speak of unspoken things" This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. #ElizabethTaylor #RobertMitchum #MiaFarrow #SecretCeremony

  • After Delaunay - Color Compositions - Pochoir
    By (after) Sonia Delaunay
    Located in Collonge Bellerive, Geneve, CH
    After Sonia Delaunay - Color Compositions - Pochoir Dimensions: 32 x 24 cm. From DELAUNAY, Sonia (1885-1979). Compositions couleurs idées. Paris Éditions d'Art Charles Moreau. Sonia Delaunay was known for her vivid use of color and her bold, abstract patterns, breaking down traditional distinctions between the fine and applied arts as an artist, designer and printmaker. Born Sarah Stern on November 14, 1885 in Gradizhsk, Ukraine, she was adopted in 1890 by her maternal uncle, Henri Terk, a lawyer in St. Petersburg, where she grew up, exposed to music and art, and learning several foreign languages. In 1903, she moved to Germany to study drawing with Ludwig Schmidt-Reutler (1863–1909) at the Karlsruhe academy of fine arts; Arnold Schoenberg (1874–1951), composer-to-be, was among her classmates there. In 1905, she traveled to Paris where she attended art classes at the Académie de la Palette, learned printmaking from Rudolf Grossman (1889–1941), and met Amédée Ozenfant (1886–1966), André Dunoyer de Segonzac (1884–1974), and Jean-Louis Boussingault (1883–1943). Sonia spent much of her time at exhibitions and galleries in Paris, which showed works by Paul Cézanne, Vincent Van Gogh, Pierre Bonnard, and Edouard Vuillard, as well as Les Fauves, Henri Matisse and André Derain. She did, however, maintain contact with Germany, exhibiting at the Galerie Der Sturm, Berlin, in 1913, 1920 and 1921. During her first year in Paris, Sonia met the German collector and art-dealer, Wilhelm Uhde (1874–1947), whom she married on December 5, 1908, and whose Montparnasse gallery, the Galerie Notre-Dame des Champs, showed her first solo exhibition. Through Uhde, Sonia encountered many painters, including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Maurice de Vlaminck, and Robert Delaunay (1885–1941). In 1910, Sonia divorced Uhde by mutual agreement, married Delaunay that same year, and gave birth to their son, Charles, in January 1911. Together Sonia and Robert Delaunay pursued the study of color, influenced by theories of Michel-Eugène Chevreul (1786–1889). Sonia’s interest in simultaneous contrast, as evidenced in her early collages, book bindings, small painted boxes...
