A striking photographic portrait of Mistinguett by Walery with its studio stamp on the verso. A tiny pinprick on the right-hand edge of the photograph.

Inscribed portrait of Mistinguett, the queen of music hall, at the top of the photograph: "To Nenette, in friendship, Mistinguett".

Actress, singer and music-hall dancer Nénette (Jeanne 'Jane' Aubert) began her long and successful career in Mistinguett's revue at the Casino de Paris. From cabaret to Hollywood silent films and the Folies-Bergères, she played many roles notably with Michel Simon, Jean-Louis Barrault and Arletty, and played a theater adaptation of "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes". She is also known as the wife of billionaire Neslon Morris, king of American corned beef.
