Joan Bennett Photoplay Magazine February Issue

Joan Bennett Photoplay Magazine February Issue NSE by American Artist Earl Christy (1882 – 1961); illustrator, portrait and female figure painter.

Joan Bennett (1910 – 1990) was an American stage, film and television actress that started her career in the theater during the 1920s and during the 1930s transitioned over to film, where she would create 50 films during her career; as well as moving to the small screen, working on such shows as Studio One and The Alfred Hitchcock Hour.

In this early 19th century illustration, most likely from the art deco era, she has a brown stole wrapped around the back of her head and neck crossing over her chest; with her golden blonde hair, blue eyes and ruby red lips grabbing the viewers attention.

This is a remastered digital art old masters reproduction of a public domain image that is available as a rolled canvas print online.
