Lot Details
Signed and inscribed in pencil, verso.
Bunny Yeager (American, 1929-2014) Bunny with Models including Bettie Page Prepping for Photo shoot, 1954 Gelatin silver print, printed later 10-1/4 x 10-1/4 inches (26.0 x 26.0 cm) (image) 14 x 11 inches (sheet) Signed and inscribed in pencil, verso. From the collection of Grapefruit Moon Gallery Bettie Page in curlers! In one of the most unusual moments to be captured by Bunny Yeager, the photographer grabbed a posed candid of the few moments in downtime while creating the photostory shoot for "Boat Trip with Bettie Page." Toward the end of her life, Bunny Yeager found the critical acclaim that had overlooked her for much of her career, with celebrated exhibitions at galleries in Florida and beyond, and a museum exhibition at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, PA. For these, Yeager reapproached her earlier work as works of fine art, creating museum quality exhibition sized prints such as the one seen here.
