Lot Details
Signed and editioned 6/10 in pencil, verso.
Bunny Yeager (American, 1929-2014) Elaina Lekas and Her Pet Leopard Nero seated on MG, 1965 Gelatin silver print, printed later 10 x 10 inches (25.4 x 25.4 cm) (image) 14 x 11 inches (sheet) Signed and editioned 6/10 in pencil, verso. From the collection of Grapefruit Moon Gallery In this image, Elaina Lekas, a perfectly coiffed blonde bouffant strikes a bathing beauty pose on the trunk of a hot rod convertible with her own pet leopard snuggled up next to her side. A daring and tempting cheesecake view that is quintessentially 1960s. 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.

Overall excellent condition. Some bumping to the corners. Sheet is loose not framed.
