Description

John Berkey - "King Kong" Poster Painting Original Art (Paramount Pictures, circa 1976).

Many of these images later appeared on everything from drinking glasses to album covers. For this spectacular scene, Berkey did a jaw-dropping job of capturing the feral fury of King Kong's life and death struggle with a giant constrictor snake. This painting has an image area of 22.5" x 19", and the art is in Excellent condition.
