About the Item
Boy with Tongue Out Spearing Brass Ring, Luxembourg Garden, Paris
Titled, dated and stamped with photographer's credit ink stamp and TIME Inc. copyright ink stamp on reverse
Silver gelatin print, printed c. 1964
10 x 8 inches
Alfred Eisenstaedt’s photograph Boy with Tongue Out Spearing Brass Ring is one of a series of pictures of Paris that the photographer took in 1963 while on assignment for LIFE magazine. The present example is a rare vintage print, made shortly after the photograph was taken, and features original ink stamps on the reverse that credit both the photographer and TIME Inc. Like many early prints that are associated with publishing it was likely made for distribution either internally or to another publication that had syndicated it. Few such prints remain. The majority of the collector’s market for Eisenstaedt’s work centres on the excellent later prints that he made for sale in conjunction with TIME in the 1980s, and so this print should be noted for its historic significance, as well as its remarkable condition.

Alfred Eisenstaedt 1
Alfred Eisenstaedt became a professional photographer in 1929 when he was hired by the Associated Press office in his native Germany. As his family was Jewish, Nazi oppression forced them to emigrate to the United States in 1935. Eisenstaedt settled in New York and was hired in 1936 by Time Magazine founder, Henry Luce, as one of the four original staff photographers for his newly acquired Life magazine. Eisenstadt is undoubtedly one of America's preeminent photojournalists. By 1972, his last year at Life, he had photographed nearly 2500 stories and provided 90 images for the front cover! He subsequently went on to work for Harper's Bazaar and Vogue. In addition to Marilyn, Eisenstaedt photographed many celebrities and dignitaries during his career, including Winston Churchill, Anthony Eden, The Clinton Family and an iconic series of portraits of Italian screen-legend, Sophia Loren. However, undoubtedly, his most famous photo was the indelible image of a sailor joyfully kissing a young woman in New York's Times Square on VJ Day, August 14th, 1945.
