EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of the film set for D. W. Griffith's iconic silent film, Intolerance, in 1916. The image captures an exterior view of the Babylonian sequence set, which was a monumental creation that transported viewers back to ancient Mesopotamia. The sheer scale of this elaborate set is awe-inspiring, with its towering architecture and intricate details meticulously designed to recreate the splendor of Babylon. A worker can be seen on one of the steps, providing a sense of perspective against the backdrop of this cinematic marvel. The presence of an elephant adds an exotic touch to the scene, symbolizing Hollywood's early fascination with incorporating majestic animals into their productions. This photograph serves as a testament to both the ambition and creativity that went into making Intolerance a groundbreaking piece of cinema. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded not only of Griffith's visionary storytelling but also how far filmmaking has come since then. It stands as a reminder that even in 1916, American filmmakers were pushing boundaries and creating unforgettable movie experiences. Granger Art on Demand presents us with yet another gem from their Carousel Collection – a timeless piece capturing an extraordinary moment in film history through stunning visual artistry by The Granger Collection.
