EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures J. Stuart Blackton on horseback during the filming of the iconic Vitagraph Studios film "Battle Cry of Peace" in 1915. The image, taken by George Grantham Bain, showcases the militaristic atmosphere surrounding the production, with soldiers and battle scenes serving as a backdrop. As one of the pioneers in early cinema, Blackton was not only a director but also an influential figure in shaping motion pictures during this era. This particular film aimed to convey a powerful message about war and its consequences, making it a significant piece of propaganda during World War I. The photo transports us back to a time when filmmaking was still in its infancy, yet already capable of capturing such intense moments on location. It serves as a reminder of how far cinema has come since then and highlights the importance of these early films in shaping our entertainment industry today. With its striking composition and historical significance, this print from Bridgeman Images is not just an ordinary photograph but rather a window into the past - an opportunity for us to reflect on both the artistry behind early filmmaking and the impact that movies have had on society throughout history.
