Ballerina, set designer, costume designer, and actress (1897-1966) who was the second wife of Rudolph Valentino. She exhibited such control over his films that Paramount barred her from her husband's sets; they divorced shortly afterward. Vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 photo of Natacha Rambova in an attractive half-length profile pose, signed neatly in fountain pen, "Most Sincerely, Natacha Rambova." In fine condition, with two light creases to the left side. A scarce image of Valentino's tempestuous spouse, who was bequeathed just one dollar in his will when he died in 1926.
