Universal Monsters Frankenstein & Dracula Prints by Greg Staples x Vice Press x Bottleneck Gallery

Universal Monsters Frankenstein & Dracula Prints by Greg Staples x Vice Press x Bottleneck Gallery

Today, Vice Press and Bottleneck Gallery are launching a new series of limited edition Universal Monsters movie posters and art prints by British artist Greg Staples!  Check out Staples beautifully ghoulish paintings of classic Universal Monsters Frankenstein and Dracula.  As BNG explained, “Greg’s renditions of Frankenstein and Dracula offer intense character studies of the two of film’s greatest creatures, focusing on the unbelievable makeup, costume work, and character work surrounding lead monsters Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi.”

“For me the classic Universal Monster films have been engrained into me since I was a child, not only with their legendary visual design and makeup but because they are almost not of this world. To me they are the purest form of escapism and something that simply couldn’t be made in this day and age. I decided to approach these illustrations a little differently by choosing to try to add a bit of realism, hopefully to capture a small part of their character so wonderfully portrayed by Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi. This really was an honour.” – Greg Staples
