Original "The Virgin Queen" US 1-sheet vintage movie poster NSS 55/302

1955

About the Item

Original "The Virgin Queen" vintage movie poster. NSS: 55/302 Archival linen backed with original issued fold marks restored. Linen-backed and in excellent condition. No paper loss, no stans, A condition. The poster shows Queen Bette Davis's eyes on the lower left of this original movie poster 1955. Grade A (During this time all movie posters were folded to be shipped to the theater. The fold marks are not considered a defect.) The movie detailed the tragic relationship between the elderly Queen and her youthful lover, who was too hot-headed and too ambitious. It ends with Essex's rebellion of 1601 and his execution, which (one can see) destroys the Queen as well. There was plenty of tension in that film, and one of the joys of it is watching how, from the start, every character knows how to play Essex's headstrong behavior against him. He literally destroys himself, taking his monarch with him. • Movie posters from the mid-20th century often boast stunning and intricate artwork. They were carefully crafted to capture the essence of the film and entice audiences. The poster for "The Virgin Queen" is a visually appealing and nostalgic addition to your collection. This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. FREE Continental USA shipping.

    Cindy Sherman Hamptons International Film Festival poster (hand signed and inscribed by Cindy Sherman), 2006 Offset lithograph poster Bold signature and inscription in black marker by Cindy Sherman on the front 32 × 24 inches Unframed This print was made for the 14th Hamptons International Film Festival from October 18-22, 2006. It was boldly inscribed in black marker to Peter by Cindy Sherman. Publisher: Hamptons International Film Festival Cindy Sherman Biography: Born in 1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, Cindy Sherman lives and works in New York NY. Her ground-breaking photographs have interrogated themes around representation and identity in contemporary media for over four decades. Coming to prominence in the late 1970s with the Pictures Generation group alongside artists such as Sherrie Levine, Richard Prince and Louise Lawler, Sherman studied art at Buffalo State College in 1972 where she turned her attention to photography. In 1977, shortly after moving to New York, Sherman began her critically acclaimed Untitled Film Stills. A suite of 69 black and white portraits, Untitled Film Stills sees Sherman impersonate a myriad of stereotypical female characters and caricatures inspired by Hollywood pictures, film noir, and B movies. Using a range of costumes, props and backdrops to manipulate her own appearance and to create photographs resembling promotional film images, the series explores the tension between artifice and identity in consumer culture which has preoccupied the artist’s practice ever since. Sherman continued to channel and reconstruct familiar personas known to the collective psyche, often in unsettling ways. In 1981, the artist created her Centerfolds, a series of photographic double spreads inspired by men’s erotic...
