Erich von Stroheim Publicity Still for "The North Star"
Image
At left, the make-up artist, probably Robert Stephanoff, watches as Erich von Stroheim pinches his right cheek and examines his make-up in a hand mirror. Von Stroheim is sitting outdoors in costume as the German military doctor Otto von Harden in a publicity still for "The North Star." An officer's visor cap is on his head with goggles stored above the visor, binoculars hang from a strap on his neck, and a Red Cross armband is on his left arm.
1943
Bourke-White, Margaret, 1904-1971
