Now attributed


Most of the frontal nudes of Larry Carr in my collection have been authenticated as by Kovert of Hollywood, but this one initially had no attribution.  While researching this series, I realized that the velvet seat cover and hardwood flooring appear in at least two Fred Kovert photos of other models in a group of original prints that fetched a stunning price at auction.  So I'm giving the nod to Fred.

  1. His tan lines show well. This is a great pose! He looks surprisingly relaxed despite being seated this way.

    1. This is one of Kovert's better photos, both aesthetically and technically. I think Fred learned some staging and posing pointers when he worked in the movie business.
