Description
Original matte-finish 7.25 x 9.25 portrait of Winston Churchill by Vivienne of London, affixed to its original 9.75 x 12.75 mount, signed on the mount in pencil, "Vivienne, London." Reverse bears Vivienne's studio stamp. In fine condition, with a few small blemishes to the mount, easily matted out if desired.

In 1949, Antony, by then making a career photographing actors in Hollywood, married Churchill’s daughter Sarah, an actress. Both families became friends and Vivienne made many portraits of Churchill. This is one of her most enduring images.
