Sep. 09, 1956 - Patti Morgan poses twice.: Nicholas Egon, the society painter, has just completed two full-length portraits of television star, Patti Morgan. One a nude and one of Patti reclining in tight silver lame and a Spanish bolero jacket. The nude was something of a mistake. His idea in Portrait No. 1 - was to clothe the nude Miss Morgan later with silver lamo. But before he could do so, Victor Silvester, Jnr, Patti's husband, saw it. he said it was the most beautiful picture he had ever seen, and insisted on taking it home just as it was, said Miss Morgan. Now the full-length portrait - the picture that no other man will ever see - hangs in a bedroom at the Silversters Kensington home. Painter Egon began Portrait No. 2 - of Patti in the silver lame and Spanish bolero jacket. Photo shows Nicholas Egon puts the finishing touches to the portrait of Patti Morgan in silver lame and bolero jacket - for which she can be seen posing
