This art history class is the first time I saw Albrecht Durer's Self-Portrait. But it was strangely familiar. Later, I realized I saw a painting just like it in Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 film 'Dracula', one of the most visually stimulating films of the 1990s.
ReplyDeleteIn the scene where Jonathan Harker (played by Keanu Reeves) has dinner with an elderly Dracula (played by Gary Oldman) looming over him in his castle, a portrait of a young Dracula can be seen behind him hanging on the wall. The painting is practically indistinguishable from Durer's Self-Portrait but with Oldman's face in place of Durer's.
