The Wind

Aris Bacci paints the prairie storm.

What

A 1928 MGM poster for The Wind, illustrated by Aris Bacci.

Why

Victor Sjöström directed Frances Marion's adaptation of Dorothy Scarborough's novel; it is counted among the greatest silent films.

Notice

The wind itself is the antagonist, and Bacci paints it.
