Philippe Halsman
Philippe Halsman. Jean Cocteau, The final touch, New-York 1949
Philippe Halsman’s assignment was to capture on camera what goes on “inside a poet’s mind,” for a three-page photo essay commissioned by LIFE Magazine, coinciding with the US release of Cocteau’s movie The eagle with two heads. No stranger to the caprices of avant-garde artists – in 1941, Halsman began his famous 37-year-long collaboration and friendship with Salvador Dali – the photographer had assembled an idiosyncratic array of props for The Frivolous Prince (a moniker the writer gained in the Bohemian artistic circles he mixed in, and the title of a volume he published at twenty-two), including a live boa constrictor and a dozen trained doves. The dancer Leo Coleman was also part of the entourage, alongside a “girl with a classically beautiful face” and a “classically perfect body”: Enrica Soma, a 19-year-old model and prima ballerina who had appeared on the cover of LIFE herself in 1947, where she was spotted by the filmmaker John Huston. She became his fourth wife in 1950.

The Pickle sisters
The Pickle sisters 1920s.
The Pickle Sisters, a 1920s vaudeville group. Margaret, Mavis, Opal, and Florence were just unknown names until they were replaced by dillie, kosher, gherkin, and bee bee. They recorded a few songs that were played on the radio. They appeared in a newsreel that captivated every moviegoer; suddenly, everyone went Pickle Sisters crazy. Green studded dresses flew out, children raided their parents’ wardrobes for anything that resembled a pickle hat, and « I’m green for your form » reached number six on the hit parade.

Paul Nadar
Paul Nadar. Two dancers 1895-1905.
In 1887, Félix Tournachon, known as Nadar, retired to his house in the Sénart forest, leaving his son Paul at the head of the famous studio he had created in the mid-1850s. To the refined and intimate official portraits of Félix, Paul preferred more complex scenographies, using accessories and sets that identified the person photographed in their role or professional capacity. Many actors and actresses paraded before his lens, reinterpreting scenes performed at the time in the greatest Parisian theaters.
