GROUCHO MARX (1890-1977)
autographed photograph Signed (lower left) and dated 23 February 1953 on reverse 26 x 21 cm Provenance: Private collection, South of France Groucho Marx (Julius Henry Marx) was an American comedian, famous for his acting method characterized by the fast speech, the use of puns, a light-hearted irreverence and an ill-concealed contempt for social conventions. His distinctive appearance included an exaggerated stooped posture, spectacles, cigar, a thick moustache, and eyebrows. This photograph depicts him while hosting You Bet Your Life, a comedy quiz radio-tv series.
