Jean Harlow Naturalist Nudes

Brook, possibly Griffith Park, Los Angeles
1929 JH2920


Costume
   Nude with drape.

   TMLBAP.

Actions
   The authenticity of other Jean Harlow nudes has been questioned but this photoshoot in drapery is definately the Platinum Bombshell on her way to become the reigning Hollywood glamour goddess of the 1930s (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).

Commentary
   As a young starlet Harlow follows a similar path to many other movie actresses.
