1921 Adopting Deslys Gaby Llama Llamas
EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait of Gaby Deslys, taken in 1921, showcases the Parisian jazz star in an unexpected setting. Known for her electrifying dance performances and sultry vocals, Deslys was a sensation of the Jazz Age and a regular feature in magazines of the time. In this image, however, she is seen in a more contemplative moment, adopting a novel as if it were a novelty transport item, such as a llama or a cart. The unusual prop adds an air of whimsy to the photograph, highlighting Deslys' playful and unconventional personality. The backdrop of the 1920s, with its vibrant music scene and cultural shifts, further emphasizes the sense of excitement and innovation of the era. Despite the casual pose and the seemingly trivial prop, the photograph captures the essence of Gaby Deslys' magnetic charm and her status as a world-renowned star.
