La solitude de Ramsès (Charles de Rochefort), Les Dix Commandements de Cecil B. De Mille, 1923 Épreuve d'époque montée sur carton, 260 x 344 mm. Crédit du photographe sur le montage. Cachet du collectionneur John Kobal au verso. Belle et singulière épreuve. It is hard to imagine that Edward Sheriff Curtis, the first authority on and famous chronicler of the American India, with J. Pierpont Morgan as a onetime patron, would arrive in Hollywood virtually penniless. To pay off the debts from a crippling divorce, Curtis worked as a cameraman and still photographer for Cecil B. de Mille on The Ten Commandments (1923) and other films. After five years, Curtis left Hollywood in 1927 to resume his earlier work.
