Description

This is the cover for the French album 1927 - Le Robot de Métropolis. The album is part of the series L´homme de l´Année.

This album takes place in Weimar Germany 1926-27. It depicts a fanciful story behind the creation of Fritz Lang´s cinematic masterpiece Metropolis.
The main character in the album and in the movie is actually a double character: the kind heroine Maria and a false Maria in the shape of a sexy, manipulating and sinister robot. Both Marias were performed by the young and unknown Brigitte Helm. Helm´s robot is arguably the most famous and influential robot in movie history, and Lang´s Metropolis is arguably one of the most famous and influential movies ever.
The size of the painting is 45 x 65 cm (17.72 x 25.59 in.).

A golden glow surrounds Maria. It might be to give her more glory or it might be symbolic of the heat from the underclasses below ready to erupt!
