Laurent Dureiux produced yet another stylish and thought-provoking design, this time for one of the true classics of cinema, the Oscar winning romance Gone With the Wind (1939). A highly detailed depiction of Scarlett O'Hara (Vivien Leigh) dominates the imagery, with Rhett's (Clark Gable) famous exit incorporated into the shape of her dress. The dark colours on Scarlett and the tombstones surrounding her create a harrowing feeling. This officially licensed print (hand-numbered #124/345) exhibiting Durieux's signature style was released in 2017 as part of Dark Hall Mansion's Seminal Film Series and is an excellent tribute to vintage movie posters. Dark Hall Mansion was the first to introduce Durieux's work to the alternative movie poster and US markets, allowing his designs to reach a worldwide audience and gain a huge following. Several of the designs included in this collection are some of his earliest works, making them extremely scarce.

Provenance: This lot originates from the Dark Hall Mansion archive. Beginning in 2011, Dark Hall Mansion had established itself as one of the leading names in offering creative and in-demand alternative movie posters. Over the years, they released an array of poster designs created by leading and established artists who produced imaginative interpretations of cinema, music and more. Most importantly, their releases were officially licensed by the film, television, and music brands they worked with, making their posters part of the official collecting legacies of these classic titles.
