This appeared in Close Up magazine during 1930. it is a modern rendering of Greta Garbo drawn by the esteemed author Paul Rotha.

After the death of Mauritz Stiller and Einar Hanson, in the 1931 volume Film Till Now, Paul Rotha groups Greta Garbo with the other Europen actors and directors, including Greta Nissen, Lars Hanson and Victor Sjostrom who had "deserted the sinking ship and settled down in California", "bought by dollars" and sent to the "Hollywood groove of living". He attributes a lyricism to the films of the Golden Age of Swedish Silent Film, the period during which Greta Garbo had made her film debut under the direction of Mauritz Stiller, one with a "feeling for depth and width".
