There are well associated images on our retina related to the film industry in Hollywood. The Lion of the Metro Goldwin Mayer is one of the most recurrent and that has opened the way to tremendous movies that is already part of the pop culture of our days as well as that of other decades.
El Paramount Pictures logo is another of which we have great memories for starting those stories and adventures of the films produced by this centennial film distributor with sele in Hollywood, California. The painting you see in the cover image was painted to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the company. They finally ended up using the paint on their logo in 1988.
The first time you see the painting, you may think that it is an artist who has tried to copy the Paramount Pictures logo itself, but it is really the painter and his work made for commemorate the 75th anniversary from the American production company.
The painter is Dario Campanile and he is still alive as shown in your website that you can access to see the rest of his work, which also includes surrealist paintings. The mountain is Matterhorn and it is one of the most characteristic peaks of the Alps. The Matterhorn reaches 4.478 meters high and has become one of the last mountains in the Alps to be climbed. It is located just 5 kilometers south of Zermatt, Switzerland, although it is also bordering Breuil, Cervinia, Italy.
Dario now resides in Maui and he continues to paint as you can see on his website where he continues to search for different forms of expression, even though he has to his credit painting one of the most iconic images of Hollywood cinema and which we all quickly associate with high quality films.
It is the Artesonraju in Huaraz, Peru.
