AGNES TEMPLE FATJO IN GENOA HOTEL ROOM DURING HONEYMOON
Color: Black; White
A black and white photograph of Agnes Temple Fatjo in a hotel room, ca. 1930. Temple is at center sitting on a lounge sofa and looking up and towards the right. She wears what appears to be a robe or a one-piece dress. The shadow of her husband, Luis Fatjo, is at the bottom right. At the center of the background is the bed with the comforter, pillows, sheets, and other articles scattered about the surface. Two wallpaper-covered walls are also in the background where there is a painting at the top center and two doors flanking this. On the back is writing in Temple's hand which reads, "This pose could / almost rival / Gretta [sic] Garbo!!! / Rec'd Feb 10/30." The photograph was taken during Temple's honeymoon and was housed in her album, which is item 96.7.94.1 along with many other photographs, which span 96.7.1.1-.93.1. Contact sheets 2000.159.1.1-.8 show the original positioning of the images within the album. With some water damage, the image is in fair condition.
