About the Artwork

This dramatic movie poster from 1913 captures the perilous moment when Lygia, a beautiful Christian woman, is bound to a wild bull and sentenced to death in the Roman arena. The poster's stark contrast between Lygia's pale form and the bull's dark bulk creates a sense of imminent danger and impending violence.

The Roman crowd, rendered in a swirling mass of red and brown, seems to surge forward, eager for the spectacle of the doomed woman. Yet, Lygia's face, though etched with fear, also conveys a quiet determination and unwavering faith. The poster hints at the larger themes of the film: the clash between pagan Rome and the nascent Christian faith, the power of love and faith in the face of adversity, and the ultimate triumph of good over evil.

This vintage poster is not only a captivating piece of graphic design but also a historical artifact that transports viewers back to a time when silent films captured the imagination of audiences worldwide. It is a reminder of the enduring power of storytelling and the timeless appeal of tales of love, faith, and survival.
