In 1931, she left Paramount and signed with MGM, and in 1935, she starred in "Naughty Marietta" with Nelson Eddy, who whom she appeared in several other opera-like musicals of the 1930s.

Important Added Info: Note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic. Someone trimmed away the extra 1" from the left of the still. Condition: good to very good. The still was neatly trimmed to 6 3/4" x 9". It might have originally measured 8" x 10" plus an extra strip on the left, but we can't say for sure. Otherwise, the still is in nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
