Beschreibung:

Twentieth Century-Fox, 1963. Black wig with what appears to be human hair coiled into long, thin ringlets, with the crown and several ringlets lined and encircled in gold trim, with each coil culminating in a small gold circular ornament, bearing an interior red-lettered "Western Costume Co." label inscribed, "E. Taylor" in black ink. No expense was spared in director Joseph Mankiewicz's epic tale of the Queen of the Nile, with Elizabeth Taylor undergoing 65 costume changes, most with a different wig. The film captured headlines not only for its expenditures and difficulties but for the scandalous affair between Taylor and costar Richard Burton Nevertheless, the jewelry, wigs, and stunning costumes by Renie are a feast for the eye, with Taylor at the peak of her beauty. Taylor can be seen wearing this wig in a scene with Martin Landau and Hume Cronyn. Together with a metal bracelet and a faux diamond and black enamel arm coil with each end resembling a snake head; these two items have not been screen matched to the film but are similar in style to the jewelry worn by Taylor in the film. Accompanied by a color photo of Taylor wearing the wig in the film. 11 x 17 x 3 in.
