EDITORS COMMENTS
Metropolis" is a groundbreaking masterpiece of German expressionist cinema, created by visionary filmmaker Fritz Lang in 1927. This stunning lobby card, an anonymous creation from the same year, provides a tantalizing glimpse into the futuristic world portrayed in the film. The image features a ballet dancer poised gracefully against the backdrop of a breathtaking cityscape, her ethereal presence contrasting sharply with the cold, metallic architecture of Metropolis. The use of color lithography adds an extra dimension to the image, bringing the futuristic city to life with its vibrant hues and intricate details. The communication design of the lobby card is impeccable, with the title "Metropolis" boldly emblazoned across the top, and the tagline "A Tale of 2000 Years Hence" subtly hinting at the film's forward-thinking themes. The influence of "Metropolis" on the history of cinematography cannot be overstated. Its innovative use of special effects, complex narrative, and groundbreaking visual style paved the way for a new era in filmmaking. The film's exploration of themes such as technology, communication, and the relationship between the haves and the have-nots remains as relevant today as it was almost a century ago. This lobby card is a testament to the enduring power of "Metropolis" as a work of fine art. Its graphic design and cinematography continue to inspire artists and filmmakers alike, and its place in the annals of cinema history is secure. The private collection in which it resides is fortunate to possess such a rare and valuable piece of film history.
