## Caption

German-born actress Marlene Dietrich, who was born 120 years ago today, photographed by Clarence Sinclair Bull in December, 1943.⁠
Head of the MGM stills department from 1924 to 1959, Bull's portraiture - with its sculptural lighting and impeccably retouched finish - came to define the Golden Age of Hollywood.⁠
