Diane Arbus Mia Villiers-Farrow on a Bed, black-and-white photograph, Mia Farrow seated on a bed, contemplative expression.

stamped, 'A Diane Arbus photograph', signed, titled, dated, '1964' and numbered by Doon Arbus, Administrator in ink, Estate copyright credit stamps, and annotations in pencil (verso) // Diane Arbus's photograph Mia Villiers-Farrow on a Bed captures the young actress Mia Farrow in an intimate and contemplative moment. Taken in 1964, this black-and-white photograph shows Farrow seated on the edge of an unmade bed, with her legs slightly spread, hands folded in her lap, and an almost fragile expression. Arbus's characteristic style is evident, emphasizing the vulnerability and depth of her subject. The soft lighting and subtle shadows enhance the mood of introspection, while the surrounding setting—a dimly lit room with a large bed and minimal furniture—further draws attention to Farrow’s introspective gaze. This photograph, part of an edition of 75, reveals Arbus’s talent for capturing the raw, often hidden sides of her subjects.
