EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1897 when Bram Stoker's iconic vampire novel, Dracula, made its debut in London bookshops. The image captures the excitement and anticipation surrounding the release of this timeless literary masterpiece. As we delve into the depths of history, it is fascinating to see how a single book has left an indelible mark on popular culture. However, our attention is quickly drawn to another significant moment in time - July 27th, 1978. Actor Terence Stamp takes center stage as he flawlessly embodies the enigmatic character of Dracula. Dressed in an exquisite costume that exudes both elegance and menace, Stamp's portrayal brings Stoker's immortal creation to life once again. The photograph encapsulates the essence of entertainment from the 1970s while paying homage to one of literature's most enduring characters. It serves as a reminder that even after more than eight decades since its publication, Dracula continues to captivate audiences across different mediums. Ron Burton skillfully captures these two distinct moments in his evocative print from Memory Lane Prints. This artwork not only celebrates Stoker's literary genius but also pays tribute to actors who have breathed life into his unforgettable characters throughout history.
