![[Jazz & Song] Baker, Josephine. (1906–1975) Large Signed Photograph in Bathtub!](http://www.schubertiademusic.com/cdn/shop/files/Baker_bathtub_SP_10786775.jpg?v=1722187987)
[Jazz & Song] Baker, Josephine. (1906–1975). Large Signed Photograph in Bathtub!. An extraordinary signed vintage doubleweight 1932 photograph of the legendary entertainer shown naked and bathing in a bathtub. Possibly a film still, in fine condition, slightly trimmed as evidenced by the partial photographer's stamp on verso ([Bernh]ARD WEIL & CO.). 28 x 22 cm [11 x 8.5 inches].
Baker frequently received her guests while in the bathtub (sometimes with a pet monkey perched on the rim!) or otherwise naked or semi-naked. She once said "I hate laces...I hope later we will live naked."
Baker was most noted as a singer, while in her early career she was a celebrated dancer. She was given the nicknames the "Black Venus" or the "Black Pearl", as well as the "Créole Goddess" in anglophone nations, while in France she has always been known in the old theatrical tradition as "La Baker."
