This is a large (14x22 1/2) stained glass window,
which was enshrined in the basement of an antique
store! The beloved icon has been rendered, on stain
glass, in the familiar pose that emblazoned MGM's
original FORBIDDEN PLANET posters.
Illuminated by sun or artifical light, Robby beams
pulsing hues; adhering to a pulp-ish hubris, 1950's
style, the robot's dominant colors are black, cherry,
and crystal. The curvy body of luscious Altaira,
shaded with a brilliant but sensuous lemon color
(appled to her abbreviated attire and casading hair),
is outlined in burnt orange. The background is a
swirling pastiche of crimson and orange, invoking
FORBIDDEN's PLANET'S eastmancolor milieu.
This is absolutely a one-of-a-kind item!
Value: $300.
