Dark Hall Mansion continues its Seminal Film Series with this wonderful officially licensed Gone with the Wind screen print by Laurent Durieux! Based on the iconic 1939 film, Laurent's piece addresses its varied themes and arc with boldness and subtlety. As DHM explains, “From his powerful yet emotionally conflicted rendering of actress Vivien Leigh’s expression as Scarlett O'Hara to the provocative visual concept for Scarlett herself as both woman and thematic entity, Laurent's piece lends itself to charged contemplation. On closeup you'll find his address of the horrors of war, the destruction of Tara, the famed exit of Clark Gable's Rhett Butler, as well as more subtle elements throughout such as Ashley's image in Scarlett's hand, the inscriptions on varied tombstones and more. Laurent's piece is at once evocative of original 1930's vintage movie posters while still very contemporary in approach and personal to the artist's style and aesthetic.”
