Description
SP A 25.7 x 13.3cm black and white, sepia toned landscape photograph of the French dramatist Jean Cocteau. Inscribed and signed across the lower white margin "A Claude Labarre - la belle epoque de Monstres! Les monstres ont change - Jean Cocteau" ["To Claude Labarre - the wonderful era of Monsters! The monsters have changed! Jean Cocteau"]. Some age related toning. Ink slightly discoloured but Cocteau`s signature remains clear and legible. Cocteau is clearly making reference to his work "Les Monstres Sacres" (1939). A French note written in black ink on rear indicates the photo was taken during a 1941 performance of "Les Monstres Sacres". Signed photographs of Cocteau are rare.
