"To see all my heroes in one book and look inside this enchanting world is extraordinary. A truly inspiring book." --Jess Gonchor , Production Designer of True Grit , No Country for Old Men , and Hail, Caesar!, "Pays homage to the trompe l'oeil that created some of film's most iconic settings." -- The Hollywood Reporter, "The fascinating scenic work documented so gorgeously here is vivid testimony to the critical role of the artist in the creation of expressive, immersive narrative environments throughout the history of cinema. We can begin to appreciate perhaps what we are now losing: the hand of the artist illuminated by the cinematographer's light and captured on camera at the moment of performance." --Rick Heinrichs , Academy Award-winning production designer of  Sleepy Hollow, "The fascinating scenic work documented so gorgeously here is vivid testimony to the critical role of the artist in the creation of expressive, immersive narrative environments throughout the history of cinema. We can begin to appreciate perhaps what we are now losing: the hand of the artist illuminated by the cinematographer's light and captured on camera at the moment of performance." --Rick Heinrichs , Academy Award-winning production designer of Sleepy Hollow, "What an astonishing achievement this spectacular volume is! It's an amazing treat that we, who love the movies, are being presented with. Massive congratulations are due to all who contributed to making this 'dream-work' such a totally absorbing reality." --Tony Walton , Academy Award-winning production designer of All That Jazz, "A welcome reminder of how the movies managed to summon their most magical worlds from pigments and brushstrokes." -- New York magazine, "The best book written about one of our crafts . . . ever." -- Perspective: The Journal of the Art Directors Guild, "In The Art of the Hollywood Backdrop . . . the unsung artists who created some of cinema's most enduring images take a long-overdue bow." -- The Wall Street Journal, "What a pleasure it is to see this book being published. Now, the filmgoer can see for themselves one of the great and beautiful mysteries of film creation. This book shows it all." --Dean Tavoularis , Academy Award-winning production designer of The Godfather: Part II, "To turn the pages of this book is to feel like you've entered a legendary treasure house filled with magnificent images, paintings that fooled the eye." -- Los Angeles Times, "Reveals a facet of moviemaking that even savvy film buffs may not know about . . . You will be amazed, as I was, at the number of familiar scenes from films as varied as The Wizard of Oz , North by Northwest , and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events that make use of these canvases . . . This is truly an eye-opening book and a valuable contribution to our understanding of how movies are created." --Leonard Maltin, "Reveals a facet of moviemaking that even savvy film buffs may not know about . . . You will be amazed, as I was, at the number of familiar scenes from films as varied as The Wizard of Oz , North by Northwest , and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events that make use of these canvases . . .

Synopsis
The definitive behind-the-scenes history of one of Hollywood's most closely guarded cinematic secrets finally revealed--painted backdrops and the scenic artists who brought them to the big screen. In almost every feature film of Hollywood's golden age, from The Wizard of Oz to North by Northwest to Cleopatra to The Sound of Music , painted backings have convinced moviegoers that what they are seeing--whether the fantastic roads of Oz, the presidents of Mount Rushmore, or ancient Egyptian kingdoms--is absolutely real. These backings are at once intended to transport the audience and yet remain unseen for what they really are. The Art of the Hollywood Backdrop reveals the hidden world and creators of these masterpieces, long-guarded as a special effects secret by the major studios such as MGM, Warner Brothers, Universal, Columbia, 20th Century Fox, and Paramount. Despite the continued use of hand-painted backings in today's films, including the big-budget Interstellar and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events among many others, digital technology is beginning to supplant the art form. In an effort to preserve the irreplaceable knowledge of scenic masters, Karen Maness and Richard Isackes, in collaboration with the Art Directors Guild, have compiled a definitive history of the craft, complete with interviews of the surviving artists. This is a rich undiscovered history--a history replete with competing art departments, dynastic scenic families, and origins stretching back to the films of M li s, Edison, Sennett, Chaplin, and Fairbanks. Filled cover to cover with over 300 images, The Art of the Hollywood Backdrop is beautifully packaged as a hardcover book with slipcase., The definitive behind-the-scenes history of one of Hollywood's most closely guarded cinematic secrets finally revealed - painted backdrops and the scenic artists who brought them to the big screen. The Art of the Hollywood Backdrop reveals the hidden world and creators of these masterpieces, long-guarded as a special effects secret by the major studios such as MGM, Warner Brothers, Universal, Columbia, 20th Century Fox and Paramount. In an effort to preserve the irreplaceable knowledge of scenic masters, Maness and Isackes have compiled the definitive history.

    Really nice, clean vintage George Wright lithographs, as described. I bought one other of this series from this Seller and was very pleased, so I bought 2 more! Prints were carefully rolled and wrapped and shipped in a mailing tube with extra padding. Price was more than reasonable and shipping as well. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy from this Seller again!

    Thank You Bruce for a very nice Ives type train station. It required longer than the instructions said to build it, but happy with it none the less. Professional packaging, shipped quick and safely, certainly as described, a good value to me . Would buy from seller again and communication was perfect. Highly Recommended ! Top Shelf !
