Self-portrait with Ava Gardner, Photograph by Man Ray, 1950
During the production of Albert Lewin’s film Pandora and the Flying Dutchman, Ava Gardner posed for Man Ray. While this painting was ultimately not used in the film, he collaborated with director Albert Lewin on various artistic elements. Man Ray created what became Ava’s favorite photograph—which appears in the movie as a miniature portrait on a table in the Dutchman’s ship.
