Der Mörder Dimitri Karamasoff. 1931. Josef Fenneker.
37 1/8 x 55 3/4 in./94.2 x 144.7 cm
The Murder of Dimitri Karamazov is a German cinematic drama based on parts of Dostoyevsky's famed The Brothers Karamazov. It is considered a tour de force in Expressionist filmmaking, with stellar performances by both Fritz Kortner and Anna Stein. The poster itself is a departure from the typical Fenneker composition, setting the stars against a bright yellow backdrop instead of his typical black background.
Availaible at auction October 30.
