A striking framed black-and-white photograph stated to depict iconic 1950s pin-up model Bettie Page, photographed by celebrated photographer Bunny Yeager. The image captures Page in a classic mid-century glamour pose by the water.
This photograph was acquired at auction in the 1990s and comes from the Todd Oldham Studio collections. Todd Oldham is well known as an avid collector of photography, design, art, and cultural objects, making this piece especially appealing to collectors interested in provenance as well as vintage glamour photography.
The photograph is presented with a wide white mat and housed in a decorative gold bamboo-style frame, giving the work a glamorous Hollywood Regency or Palm Beach quality. The frame’s bamboo motif complements the tropical, resort-like feeling of the image while making the piece suitable as both a photographic collectible and a stylish decorative object.

A beautiful statement piece for collectors of vintage photography, pin-up history, mid-century glamour, Hollywood Regency interiors, or items from the Todd Oldham Studio collections.
Condition: Presents well overall in its decorative frame. Light age-related wear may be present to the frame, mat, or glazing, consistent with display, handling, and age.
