EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic allure of Hollywood icon Greta Garbo as she is reflected quadruple in a mirror, donning a stunning Chinese-inspired dress for the MGM film, The Painted Veil. Released in 1934, the movie was based on W. Somerset Maugham's novel of the same name and was set in China. The dress, made of white blister crepe, was adorned with jade and silver ornaments on the shoulders, adding an exotic and alluring touch to Garbo's already iconic style. The optical illusion created by the mirror reflection further adds to the mystique and intrigue surrounding the star. With her signature veil covering her hair and her enigmatic expression, Garbo embodied the essence of mystery and glamour, making her one of the most beloved and enduring figures in film history. This photograph is a testament to the power of fashion and the art of cinema, offering a glimpse into the world of a true Hollywood legend.
