Description
This acrylic piece pays tribute to the silent screen's iconic Latin Lover,
the immortal Rudolph Valentino.
The composition displays the film's climatic ending,
with a romantic cameo of valentine himself,
"Men wanted to be him, and women wanted to be with him."
Rudolph Valentino came to Hollywood at a young age,
and found some level of success before being cast in the movie;
"The Four Horsemen of The Apocalypse".
That movie pushed him into the limelight and made him a true star.
The man had an exotic appearance that drew people to him,
and made him look a little different than other actors at the time.
"Blood and Sand (1922) is an American Silent Drama Film
Produced by Paramount Pictures, Directed by Fred Niblo,
and Starring Rudolph Valentino, Lila Lee, and Nita Naldi.
The film was based on the Spanish novel; 'Blood and Sand' (Sangre y Arena)
by Vincente Blasco (1909), and the play version of the book by Thomas Cushing.
