Loy sketched this pencil-portrait, entitled "Teri," in 1954. Teri was the wife of Hans Fraenkel, and Hans had been married from 1944-1949 to Loy's youngest daughter Fabienne. The original backing for the portrait contains the inscription: "TERI BY MINA LOY / JULY 1954 / ASPEN, COLORADO /To Alicia / With all my love / Aunt Teri." James Jaffe provided the scanned image of the portrait. The drawing is currently owned by Raphael Schulte. |
