Photographer: Victor Arimondi
Victor Arimondi (November 8, 1942 - July 24, 2001) was an Italian American photographer and model who lived and worked in Europe before moving to the United States in the late 1970s. His early fashion photography, his portraits of Grace Jones and other artists, and his male nudes photographed in New York and San Francisco captured the pre-AIDS culture of the 1970s and early 1980s.
Photographs from the archive of After Dark and Dance Magazine editor William Como. After Dark was an essential source on dance, theater, performance art, ballet, and cinema of the late 60 and 1970s and a foundational piece of gay cultural history that influenced a generation of artists.Dimensions

Estimate Value:
The value of a vintage gelatin silver print photo, especially of someone as iconic as Grace Jones, can vary significantly based on several factors, including condition, provenance, market demand, and the reputation of the photographer.
2. **Provenance**: Having the photographer's stamp adds credibility and can increase value, especially if Victor Arimondi is recognized in the art photography community.
As a rough estimate, a vintage print like this could sell for $6,000 or more.Link to austion on 1st Dibs
