ORIGINAL MAURICE SEYMOUR (1900-1993) 'RUTH PAGE BALLET IN LOVE SONG' PHOTOGRAPH 

This is a wonderful original photograph.  Fresh from a photography estate collection I recently acquired.  This was one of the main photographs I was after in the collection.  There are many other great ones that am and will be offering here on ebay this week and in the future.  This is a stunning important photograph because of both the photographer as well as the subject.  Maurice Seymour is a very important 20th Century photographer and for those not familiar with him, I have included his biography below.  The subject of this photograph is as important if not more.  This is a stunning image of the Ruth Page Ballet ballerinas performing Love Song, most likely the first performance done around 1935.  For those not familiar with the Ruth Page Ballet, do your research.  An incredibly important part of Ballet history for both Chicago and the history of Ballet.  Photograph measures 8 x 10 inches and is a stunning composition in black and white.  Incredible use of light and shadows through the ballerinas costumes.  A truly artistic photograph.  Photo is in excellent condition with just a few minor edge bumps and a handling crease or 2.  Original Maurice Seymour stamp and title in pencil verso.  Truly a stunning important Chicago and Ballet history photograph.  FREE SHIPPING ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES.

For those not familiar with the photographer his biography from a website that sells his work reads: "Maurice Seymour was a Russian immigrant who came to the United States in the 1920’s and opened a studio soon after. He was known as the “photographer to the celebrities” of his time. All kinds of entertainers came before Seymour’s lens. However, if he is best-known for any one area of photography, it is for his ballet pictures. "
