"Nude with Golden Hair", Striking Male Nude by du Bois, Tony Award Winner
About the Item
Diminutive and striking, this Mannerist male nude by Raoul Pène du Bois, the great Broadway designer, depicts a confident figure in the full bloom of youth, with golden hair and blushing flesh. du Bois won renown as a scenic and costume designer for Broadway beginning in the 1930s. He won Tony awards for scenic design (Wonderful Town), and for costume design (No, No Nanette); among the many other shows he designed were the Ziegfeld Follies (1934), Jumbo (1935), Du Barry was a Lady (1939), and Charley's Aunt (1953). The painting is watercolor and gouache on heavy, textured paper; it is marked with du Bois' estate stamp on the reverse.
