Aleister Crowley: Early Signed Portrait
A young man in a dark jacket and patterned necktie looks directly towards the camera. The printed signature beneath identifies Aleister Crowley. The portrait appears at the opening of the first volume of his collected works, pairing the author’s face with his distinctive handwriting. The visible reproduction does not name an individual photographer.
