[Signed by Duchess of Windsor and Dorothy Wilding] Wilding, Dorothy. Portrait of the Duchess of Windsor. Circa 1940s. In very good condition. Gelatin silver photograph measuring 7 1/2 x 10 inches mounted on an 11 x 14 cream mat. Unframed. The photograph is signed “Wallis Windsor” in blue fountain pen. Dorothy Wilding has signed it on the recto. Her studio plate is attached to the opposite side, along with a written notation of the negative number, “3267-D.”
The Duchess of Windsor sat for the Dorothy Wilding studio on multiple occasions, over many decades. A portrait from the 1930s was selected by Time Magazine for the cover of the issue that declared her “Woman of the Year.” This is one of the less common images from their long association.
