Description

Fabulous 1954 oversized portrait signed as “Ondine”

Vintage matte-finish 10.5 x 13.5 photo of Hepburn in her 1954 Broadway role as Ondine, signed and inscribed in blue ink, “To Walter, with sincere best wishes, Ondine.” Reverse bears a Milton Greene photographer’s stamp and other promo stamps for the play. Attractively double-matted and framed to an overall size of 17.5 x 20.5, with a window in the backing so that the ink stamps can be viewed. Some brushing and irregular adhesion to signature and inscription, and a few subtle surface creases, otherwise fine condition. She co-starred with Mel Ferrer in the play, marrying him shortly after it closed; she received much acclaim for her stunning portrayal of Ondine, and received the 1954 Tony for Best Actress in a Play for the role. An outstanding portrait dating to the time of Hepburn’s emergence as a worldwide star. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
