Lorraine Cugat. Music hall dancer, ex wife of the “Rhumba King”, Latin-American music band leader Xavier Cugat. Cannes 1952. Contact prints. Photos from original negatives available.
A contact sheet from Cannes, 1952, displays twelve photographs of Lorraine Cugat, the music hall dancer and former wife of "Rhumba King" Xavier Cugat. In this series of black-and-white images, she poses on a sunny beach in different outfits—a light-colored swimsuit and a striped shirt with shorts. The sheet itself, marked with handwritten notes and red grease pencil, reveals the editing process, with selected frames squared off and cropping instructions noted on a close-up portrait.
This photo is also available as a vintage print in the following size:
