This vintage photograph features a pretty young dancer wearing a magnificent costume. I believe her hat and skirt are made of feathers. Her lithe body is accompanied by a winsome smile. This beautiful photograph comes from the Paris studio of Pierre Apers. He was a talented French photographer active in the 1920’s and 1930’s. His studio was in Paris and he specialized in portraiture. He is known for his photographs of French theatre and film stars. Some of his work is in the collection of the Bibliotech Francais in Paris. The reverse of the photograph has an ink stamp providing the address of Aper’s studio. SOLD
The pretty actress seen in this vintage real photo postcard is Lucienne Legrand (1900-1987). She was French and was active in film between 1921 and 1929. Her work was in silent film and she often worked alongside her actor/director husband, Emile-Bernard Donatien. For clarity sake, note that there was another actress named Lucienne Legrande; but this actress was born in 1920. Lucienne Legrand, pictured on this postcard, has eighteen film credits listed by IMDb. The site states that she is most well known for La chevauchee blanche (1924), Simone (1926), and Le martyre de Sainte-Maxence (1928). This photo postcard was published by Cinemagazine (Paris Edition) as part of a series (no.98). The photograph of Miss Legrand was taken by Pierre Apers. He was a talented French photographer active in the early twentieth century. His studio was in Paris and he specialized in portraiture. The cabinet card gallery is building a nice collection of his photographs. This vintage photo postcard is in very good condition (see scans).
