Orpheus #1 - Balanchine Ballet with Francisco Moncion and Nicholas Magallanes
By George Platt Lynes
Located in Glenford, NY
George Platt Lynes 1948 Photograph #1 of Balanchine Ballet ‘Orpheus’.
George Platt Lynes rare original vintage 1948 silver gelatin photograph (dated by the NY City Public Library) of nude dancers Francisco Moncion and Nicholas Magallanes in George Balanchine's iconic mid-20th Century ballet Orpheus. Stamped on verso in dark blue ink at upper center, "GEORGE PLATT LYNES/145 EAST 52 STREET NEW YORK”. Photo shoot took place in NYC. Costumes and Set by ISAMU NAGUCHI. Photo is 7 5/8 x 9 1/4 inches, soft satin finish in excellent condition.
This photograph is one from my collection of 14 different poses in this series of nude photographs of Moncion and Magallanes in Orpheus by Platt Lynes. 8 different photography are remaining and are available on request. Original stamped by the artist gelatin silver prints are rare. Photographs from this celebrated series are in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (NYC), Museum of Modern Art (MOMA, NYC), the NYC Public Library, and many university art archives.
George Platt Lynes (1907–1955), was a gregarious American portrait, dance, fashion, and male nude photographer whose career spanned the late 1920s through the early 1950s. From age eighteen, Lynes entered the cosmopolitan world of the American expatriate community in Paris when he became acquainted with the salon of Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas. He began photographing authors like Stein, Jean Cocteau, André Gide, and Colette and soon established himself as one of the premier fashion photographers in the Condé Nast stable, documenting the ballet companies of George Balanchine/Lincoln Kirstein, and pursuing a private obsession with seductive images of young male nudes rarely published in his lifetime.
Orpheus represents a major 20th Century artistic collaboration between composer Igor Stravinsky, choreographer George Ballanchine, and artist/designer Isamu Naguchi. Orpheus is a thirty-minute neoclassical ballet composed by Igor Stravinsky in collaboration with choreographer George Balanchine in Hollywood, California in 1947. The work was commissioned by Ballet Society, later renamed New York City Ballet, which Balanchine founded with Lincoln Kirstein. Sets and costumes were created by Isamu Noguchi. Noguchi’s lyre harp from the production became the symbol of the New York City Ballet.
Francisco Moncion (July 6, 1918 – April 1, 1995) was a charter member of the New York City Ballet. Over the course of his forty year career, choreographers George Balanchine, and Jerome Robbins in the New York City Ballet created 22 major roles for Moncion including the Dark Angel...

Edwin (a muscular nude male with dreadlocks flowing rests his head on a knee)
By Dianora Niccolini
Located in New Orleans, LA
Italian born Dianora Niccollini has created a vintage silver gelatin photograph of a very muscular nude male with dreadlocks down his back. This vintage photograph is signed, dated and numbered 4/25 on the verso. It has a full page illustration in the publication "Male Nude Now, New Visions for the 21st Century" by David Leddick.
Niccolini was a pioneer as a woman photographer who used the nude male figure as her subject matter. She depicted the nude black male as art long before Robert Mapplethorpe.
Dianora Niccolini was born in Florence, Italy, to an American mother and a father from an old Florentine family. She lived in Florence throughout the second world war, and at the age of almost nine years old, she came to the United States. When she turned 18, she left home and went to New York City to study art. She met a group of dancers and her passion, in her late teens and early twenties, was ballet. After she met Weegee in 1963, she took up photography and since then her professional career and focus have been photography. In 1973, she began to create photographic bodies of work which resulted in exhibits, the first of which was in 1974. It was a serious study of the female nude. Her second exhibit in 1975 was a study of the male nude which was favorably reviewed by Gene Thornton in "The Sunday New York Times" of December 7, 1975. One of her first male models was an African-American body builder. Photographs of him have been included in many photographic anthologies and were also widely exhibited in the mid seventies and pre-dated Mapplethorpe's images of body builders by several years.
Niccolini's male nude images have definitely influenced many photographers. She is considered to be one of the female pioneers of the male nude in photography...

Anthony (vintage silver gelatin photo of a male stripping, showing chiseled abs)
By Dianora Niccolini
Located in New Orleans, LA
This vintage silver gelatin photograph is signed, dated and numbered 6 of 25 impressions on the verso. This image appears on the cover of the book, "Naked Men Too, Liberating the Male Nude" by David Leddick. The model is Anthony, a man who long competed in all natural physique competitions. The sculptural aspects of his body made him the clinical ideal man for Niccolini's photographs. His white briefs are matched by the shirt he is in the process of stripping off.

Kenny Surfacing (young nude male leaps out of sea with arms raised to the sky)
By Dianora Niccolini
Located in New Orleans, LA
In this vintage silver gelatin photograph, Dianora Niccolini creates a sensual portrait of a young nude man rising out of the surf with outstretched arms. The photo suggests a spirit of renewal, an awakening. Niccolini used a poem by Walt Whitman as part of her inspiration:
I sing the body electric,
The armies of those I love engirth me and I engirth them,
They will not let me off till I go with them, respond to them,
And discorrupt them, and charge them full with the charge of the soul.
Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies conceal themselves?
And if those who defile the living are as bad as they who defile the dead?
And if the body does not do fully as much as the soul?
And if the body were not the soul, what is the soul?
