THE GRADUATE, 1967
"Elaine's" portrait from the Academy Award nominated film starring Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft and Katherine Ross. Certainly the single most important prop from this influential film. Noted for it's vivid portrayal of the "anything goes" sixties, the film score by Simon and Garfunkel earned three Grammy Awards.
The portrait consists of an artist's canvas stretched over back boards with a photograph of "Elaine" applied to the front. Oil paint was then applied to the canvas to give the impression that the portrait was in fact an oil painting. Hand inscribed on the verso ORDER #80247 20055-302 PA. On the canvas Katherine Ross is wearing a blue dress; before filming it was decided to change the color of her dress to pink, so a clear piece of acetate with pink highlights applied to the dress area was added. This acetate has long since disappeared, but the portrait has been professionally restored and cleaned with a hand-carved matching original frame--24 x 20 in.
While in the house, "Mrs. Robinson" starts flirting with "Ben".
Mrs. Robinson: Have you seen Elaine's portrait?
Ben: Her portrait?
Mrs. Robinson: Yes...We had it done last Christmas. Would you like to see it?
They go up the stairs and enter "Elaine's" room.
Ben: Elaine certainly is an attractive girl, isn't she?
As "Mrs. Robinson" asks "Ben" to unzip her dress, he uneasily departs; she asks him to bring her purse up before he goes. In what was considered the most shocking scene in the film, we see in the center of the angelic and innocent portrait of "Elaine" the reflection of "Mrs. Robinson" as she quietly enters the room without clothes.
Ben: OH GOD!
