Giant color poster of the scene from Mughal-E-Azam




From K. Asif's Mughal-E-Azam (1960), one of the most sensuous scenes from Indian Cinema. Salim (Dilip Kumar) and Anarkali (Madhubala) in Garden.
Don't complain about the missing Ostrich feather.

Something about the scene takes you back to the time when moonlit nights were mosquito free and the only hum in the air was that of a distant genset. Ah! the good old Mughal days.

How the image was created?

I had a big two-page B&W scan of the scene published in an old film magazine and a small color version of the scene published in an online version of  a newspaper. I found the colors to be a bit too bright and shiny. A bit of photoshop and a bit of Picasa did the trick.
