Our expert's notes

A Jewish woman (Eddie Murphy) paint test bust from Peter Segal's comedy The Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps. This make-up was created for the ‘Jewish Woman’ character to be played by Murphy, however the character’s scenes were ultimately cut from the film. Foam latex appliances are glued over a biscuit foam form of Murphy and painted with realistic skin tones. The head is painted in various shades to appear realistic, with glued eyebrow hair and eyelashes completing the look. The bust is covered in red velvet fabric with a single gold sequin attached to the left ear to approximate potential wardrobe. The bust has sustained some wear to the dried nose, neck, and right ear but remains in otherwise fair condition. Dimensions: 8” x 18” x 20” (20 cm x 46 cm x 51 cm)
