The Arrangement (1969) - movie poster painting (prototype)

Tom Chantrell’s original (prototype) movie poster painting for Elia Kazan’s 1969 movie, THE ARRANGEMENT. Despite turning in a nicely painted image for consideration to spearhead the UK cinema front-of-house advertising campaign, British distributors for this American-produced film opted to go the route of a photographic movie poster image and Chantrell’s artwork remained unused . I bought this painting from the Chantrell family, via their art agent.
