Description

Gates of Paradise captures actors Joseph Cotten and Joan Fontaine in a luminous 1949 moment during the filming of September Affair, standing before the majestic Ghiberti Doors at the Florence Baptistry. Slim Aarons photographed this scene where Hollywood glamour meets Renaissance artistry, framing the duo against Lorenzo Ghiberti's 15th-century masterwork whose ten gilded panels depict biblical narratives in breathtaking relief. The photograph transports you to postwar Florence, where the golden light catches the actors' elegant silhouettes against bronze doors Michelangelo himself called worthy of paradise.

Your guests won't simply see a print on your wall but rather a window into the sophisticated world where cinema, history, and art converge in a single frame. The Gates of Paradise becomes an instant conversation piece, elevating your space with the kind of cultural depth that only comes from owning a moment where old-world craftsmanship meets mid-century star power. This photograph resonates with collectors who understand that true sophistication lies in the stories we surround ourselves with, transforming any room into a gallery of impeccable taste where European elegance and Hollywood mystique blend seamlessly.

Available in museum-quality photo lustre or refined matte finish, professionally framed in your choice of black, white, or natural wood. This Slim Aarons photograph integrates beautifully with both contemporary minimalist interiors and traditional spaces, bringing the eternal beauty of Florence and the timeless allure of classic cinema into your daily experience. Make this captivating piece yours today.

Paper & Frame Info

Q: Prints are listed in cm and inches - what will be the size of my print?
We produce prints in both metric (cm) and imperial (inches) sizes. The sizing system used depends on the product type and your delivery location. In most cases, there's only a few millimetres difference between the metric and imperial conversions.

Q: How does the border affect the size of the print?
The total size of the print will always match the size you select. If you choose to add a border, it's included within that size and slightly reduces the image area.

Q: What are the dimensions if I order a framed print?
The size you select refers to the internal dimensions of the frame (the print size including any border). The frame molding adds approximately an inch to each side, so the outer framed dimensions will be about 2 inches larger in both height and width.
