Seller's Description
Original 1978 Re-Release French 47 inch x 63 inch Poster for the 1928 Carl Theodor Dreyer Historical Drama THE PASSION OF JOAN OF ARC (LE PASSION DE JEANNE D’ARC) starring Maria Falconetti, Eugene Silvain, André Berley, Maurice Schutz, Antonin Artaud and Michel Simon.
A chronicle of the trial of Jeanne d'Arc on charges of heresy, and the efforts of her ecclesiastical jurists to force Jeanne to recant her claims of holy visions.
The poster art is by Jean A. Mercier (1899 - 1995)
Active as a poster artist, illustrator and graphic designer, Jean-Adrien Mercier received his training at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in his native Angers, transferring to the Ecole des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in 1921. He began his career in 1924 as a designer of publicity and cinema posters, a field in which he was to remain active throughout his life and for which he remains best known. Between 1925 and 1942 Mercier designed more than 120 cinema posters for films by such eminent directors as Jean Renoir, Abel Gance and Sacha Guitry.
The poster is in fine folded condition.
