Seated and turned to the left, Noel Haskins Murphy is shown in a three-quarter length portrait taken by Baron George Hoyningen-Huene, the Russian-born photographer best known for his work for Vogue in Paris during the 1930s. The print comes from the papers of Janet Flanner and Solita Solano, two American writers who lived in Paris and were close friends with many expatriates in the city's literary and social circles. Its catalog date, given only as the 193-something, places it within the decade when Paris was a magnet for American artists and writers. The photograph is also reproduced in Brenda Wineapple's 1989 biography Genêt, which draws on the Flanner and Solano collection.
