About the Item

A contemporary color photograph by Roberta Fineberg, the image is an homage to great Italian cinema of the 1960s, capturing French actor Alain Delon and Italian actress Claudia Cardinale in a film classic The Leopard directed by Luchino Visconti. In the film Prince Don Fabrizio Salina (played by Burt Lancaster) allows his nephew Tancredi (Alain Delon) to marry the stunning Angelica (Claudia Cardinale), daughter to a nouveau riche, in order to maintain the aristocratic family's material comfort and political power. The photograph reframes Delon and Cardinale within 4 quadrants, appearing in the sign of a cross, a nod to the history, time and place in Sicily, Italy where the The Leopard is set. Strong Emotions, 2018 by Roberta Fineberg is 17” x 24” an archival pigment print on Japanese rice paper in an edition of 5. Signed, titled, dated by the artist.
