Perinchief, Violet Keene. 1893-1967.
Original photograph, Amelia Earhart, silver bromide print, 335 x 255 mm, mounted on paper, [Toronto: c. 1932], signed "Violet Keene" lower left of paper, the whole sheet mounted on exhibition board, verso marked "23 Amelia Earhart," small chip of board at lower left.
A fine portrait of the intrepid flyer taken in Violet's Toronto studio around the early 1930s. She captures the steely determination of the aviator, even in her relaxed poise.
