SUPERMAN Art Inspired By Richard Donner's 1978 Classic Film
Dark Hall Mansion has revealed an officially licensed limited edition Superman print created by Matt Ferguson. The illustration pays tribute to the wonderful 1978 Superman film that many of us grew up with. Richard Donner’s version of Superman, who was wonderfully portrayed by Christopher Reeve, is still my favorite version of the character. He’s a brighter, much more hopeful version of the Man of Steel than what we’ve seen in Zack Snyder’s films and that's what I love about the character!
Dark Hall Mansion will release Matt Ferguson’s classically styled and dynamic limited edition print for one of his favorite films, 1978’s “Superman.” Matt was quite keen from the start as to exactly how he envisioned his Superman piece and precisely what scene he wished to render. Matt’s artwork captures not only a key moment within the film itself but one that encompasses several classic Superman fan elements that have shaped the man of steel’s legacy since its first incarnation in 1933. Matt’s sharp blue-hued Standard edition “Superman” print is elegantly bordered with Art Deco stylings that harken to film elements while powerfully framing the central imagery as Superman comes to the rescue of his beloved Lois Lane, along with more than just a few ill placed citizens down below. Matt’s Variant “Superman” print is a heavy contrast piece with vintage overtones that gracefully counterpoints his Standard edition. The striking “Superman” foil editions perfectly compliment the Man of Steel’s thematic and creates an arresting print with the foil substrate heavily revealing itself in various areas of DHM’s most select edition.
The Superman print is currently available to purchase right here on Dark Hall Mansion’s site. So if you want one, go and get one!
