Pierrot

Approximately three prints of this image are known to exist. One of those, from the collection of Laguna Art Museum, was sold at Christie's, 23 April 1996, lot 284. A typed label, attached to the reverse of the mount of that print read, "Pierrot" An arrangement of three disconnected areas within a rectangle. Designed and painted fabric of costume myself and made use of my wife's head with heavy black tempera color makeup to enlarge mouth, etc. An alternative title, A Poster in Angles was annotated on the reverse of the mount as well. It is now in the Sondra Gilman Collection, New York (see: Weinberg, From the Heart, The Power of Photography - A Collector's Choice, p. 77).
