ANNA MAY WONG / MR. WU (1927) by Clarence Sinclair Bull. Vintage original 10 x 13 25 x 32 cm. Black-and-white double weight glossy silver gelatin print still photo, USA. Lon Chaney, Louise Dresser, Renée Adorée, Ralph Forbes, Anna May Wong, dir: William Night: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. A glowing portrait of our first Asian American star actress. Though French actress Renée Adorée played Asian daughter of Lon Chaney, a number of authentic Asians were cast in this story about traditional Mandarin laws of marriage and the daughter’s love for a British visitor to China. Shakespeare’s TITUS ANDONICUS was the basis for the story. Bull has framed Wong in the most diffusive of soft lighting for this stunning portrait. His ink stamp is on the verso as is the original attached paper blurb from the studio. It must come back in the same condition as it was sent. AUTHENTICATION: My name is Walter Reuben.
