EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic allure of Polish-born actress Pola Negri (1897-1987), as she poses gracefully with her beloved Borzoi dog on the steps of a grand mansion. Known in Hollywood as the 'Queen of the Silent Screen,' Pola Negri made her mark in American cinema during the 1920s with her sultry performances and magnetic charisma. Born Appolonia Chalupek in Lipno, Poland, Negri's acting career began in her native country before she emigrated to the United States in 1914. She quickly rose to fame in silent films, often playing seductive and exotic characters that captured the imaginations of audiences. Negri's success in Hollywood was meteoric, and she became a household name through her roles in films such as "The Cheat" (1915), "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" (1921), and "Madame Satan" (1930). Her magnetic presence on screen and her glamorous personal life made her a favorite of the press, and she was known for her elaborate costumes, extravagant jewelry, and pet Borzoi dogs. In this photograph, Negri exudes an air of sophistication and elegance as she cradles her Borzoi, a breed of Russian wolfhound known for its long, sleek coat and regal demeanor. The image captures a moment of respite for the actress, who was known for her hectic schedule and demanding career. The Borzoi, with its piercing gaze and regal posture, seems to mirror Negri's own fierce and independent spirit. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of Pola Negri, a true icon of the silent film era whose influence continues to be felt in Hollywood today.
