Eugene Robert Richee (1896-1972), Photographer.

Eugene R. Richee was an Hollywood photographer at Paramount (1921-1941) and Warner Brothers. He started by shooting silent movie stars like Gloria Swanson, Claudette Colbert, and Carole Lombard. His most famous photo is probably the portrait of Louise Brooks wearing a long string of pearls. The 1928 photo is amazing: her black hair and black dress are confused with the black background leaving only her face and the pearl necklace.

"LOUISE BROOKS 1928" poster is from the Kobal Collection, Published by FOTO-ROFF, and Distributed by Black and Whites Gallery, London. It is labeled P929.

This rare black and white poster measures 17 1/2" x 23 5/8".
