Provenance

In 1966, the Johannesburg Civic Theatre hosted a historic event: a concert by the legendary actress Marlene Dietrich. Renowned for her captivating performances and timeless elegance, Dietrich's appearance at the Civic Theatre left an indelible mark on the cultural landscape of Johannesburg and beyond.
As one of the most iconic figures of the 20th century, Marlene Dietrich brought glamour, sophistication, and unparalleled talent to the stage. Her concert featured a repertoire of classic songs, including her signature tunes such as 'Falling in Love Again' and 'Lili Marleen.'
During this time, Basil Bernard Rubin, a well-known South African impresario, brought several European artists to the stage and formed a close circle with Marlene Dietrich. She developed a close friendship with Rubin's wife, Aileen Rubin, and in appreciation of their support during her tours, Dietrich gifted Aileen a beautiful Chanel handbag with the original Chanel box, signed 'Marlene.' Christie’s is delighted to offer this exquisite piece for auction today.
