Framed Vintage Movie Art
In movies and film, just as in art, there are some pieces that are simply considered “classics.” It doesn’t matter who you are or what your preferences may be, these iconic works are universally regarded as masterpieces.
And with the recent decorative trend of framed vintage movie posters as stylistic artwork, they’re masterpieces in more ways than one! The iconic visuals we associate with great films like “Casablanca,” “Dracula,” “Gone With the Wind,” and “King Kong” are works of art in and of themselves.
The framed vintage movie poster art for “Casablanca” is every bit as captivating as the film itself. Boldly headlining the household names of Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, and Paul Henreid next to a dramatic Technicolor portrait of Bogart and Bergman’s characters, the piece stands alone as a relic of the proud cinematic tradition of the great Warner Brothers romance features of the early 20th century.
“Gone With the Wind” has an equally iconic framed vintage movie poster--the blazing brushfire color scheme that washes over the background in deep oranges and yellows while legendary screen stars Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh passionately embrace in the foreground is an image emblazoned in the minds of anyone even remotely familiar with old Golden Age movies.
And who could forget the smoldering visage of Elvis Presley on the framed vintage movie poster for “Jailhouse Rock?” The lovable roustabout jailbird with his signature pompadour hairstyle and deep dark eyes is picture perfect and brilliantly memorable on the artwork for one of his most enduring cinematic achievements.
