Description

Fantastic Beaton costume design for Streisand, including the fabric proposed

Original pencil and watercolor costume design sketch for Barbra Streisand’s 1970 film On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, on a 10.75 x 14.5 sheet, signed in the lower right in watercolor, “Beaton.” The full-length sketch shows the character in a flowing orange gown with a delicate paisley pattern and wearing a feathery hairpiece. Pinned to the upper left are two swatches of fabric matching the colors in the artwork, one a metallic gold and the other a golden orange. In fine condition. Beaton designed the period costumes for the film, which starred Streisand and Yves Montand, and it proved to be the final project of his illustrious career. This is the very first piece of actual costume artwork by Beaton that we have offered, enhanced by the inclusion of the fabric he envisioned as the material for the final product. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
