Alla auktioner / / CLAUDE CAHUN - Autoportrait à tête allongée - Original vintage photogravure
Artist: Claude Cahun (French, 1894-1954). \n\nTitle: "Autoportrait à tête allongée". \n\nMedium: Original vintage photogravure. \n\nDate: Composed 1928. Printed 1930. \n\nDimensions: Image size: 6 1/8 x 4 3/8 in. (156 x 111 mm). \n\nLot Note(s): Stamped with the photographer's name, verso. Edition unknown, presumed small. High-grade archival paper. Printed to the edge of the sheet. Fine, quality printing. Very good to fine condition; affixed to very thin and supple archival acid-free support sheet, not mount/board. Comment(s): A very rare print ? no auction records of this image located. In recent years Cahun?s altered self-portraits (silver prints) have sold from $20,000 to upwards of $100,000. She called these deformed self-portraits with shaven head her "monstrosities," in this image her head shaped as if by an ?anamorphic? mirror. Cahun, born Lucie Renee Mathilde Schwob to a prominent Jewish family, was a Surrealist photographer whose work explored gender identity and the subconscious mind. In the early 1920s she would change her name to the gender neutral Claude Cahun. Speaking of her self-portraits the photographer famously said, ?Under this mask, another mask. I will never be finished removing all these faces.? Image copyright © The Estate of Claude Cahun. [24908-2-600]
