Re: My haul from Tuesday’s auction at emovieposter
Bruce said:I love that Road to Ruin! Amazing to me that a poster from 1799 is not in a museum.
Yes, absolutely, Bruce. I’m very proud to have won this at auction. It’s something truly special, and I’m very happy about it. When it arrives here, I’ll review it with a conservator in Hamburg to determine whether restoration makes sense and what scale that might involve. A few houses down from me there’s a long-established gilder who will then create a beautiful, appropriate frame for it. This handbill will be in very good hands with me.
How does your poster look on the wall? Find out. With AI.
Hello friends of the printed movie world. Have you ever tried this? Upload one of your posters to Grok or ChatGPT (or another AI). Instruct the AI to smooth out the folds or remove magnets, and then ask it to turn it into a prop image in a frame (e.g., an attractive aluminum frame), interestingly lit by a ceiling spotlight. Setting: Penthouse, at night, etc. Just as you like it. In no time, it looks awesome. When I think about how long that used to take in Photoshop back in the day...? A great sales aid or also to check out how it would look in your own apartment.
But there still seem to be issues with the dimensions. "Blue Lagoon" is, for example, a British Quad (30" x 40"), but it appears much larger to me.
Anyway: I guess this is really helpful.
Do you think so too?
My haul from Tuesday’s auction at emovieposter
My haul from Tuesday’s auction at emovieposter. I’m pretty happy with it — and also grateful that I got outbid on a few lots here and there. Please feel free to do the same again in today’s auction. I really went overboard.
This is supposed to be my last auction for a while. I need to properly sort everything out here and pull together the invoices, customs, etc., just to figure out what this madness has actually cost me in the end.
Then again… maybe I don’t really want to know. :-)
