Signed (' S. Eisenstein') in bold red fountain pen ink to the verso, with eleven lines of additional amusing, explanatory text in his hand, in French, '"En Famille" Marthe Lapkina et moi 5 minutes avant de finir le "shooting" de la "Ligne Generale" (le bebe sur mes genoux est parvenu au monde sans aucune cooperation de ma part! - notre bebe a nous c'est la "Ligne")' (Translation: ' "With my family" Martha Lapkina and I 5 minutes before we finished shooting the "Ligne Generale" (the baby on my lap came into the world without any cooperation from me! - our baby is the "Line")' ). With the publication stamp of Vu magazine to the verso and a few ink and pencil annotations in an unidentified hand, largely notes and directions for the publication of the photograph. Rare. A few corner and surface creases, otherwise VG The baby seen in the photograph was in fact M. Ivanin who appeared in the film as Martha's on-screen son.
