About This Print
Martin Ansin’s Masterpiece: The Phantom of the Opera
Immerse yourself in the gothic horror and operatic drama of the 1925 silent film masterpiece with this stunning screen print by celebrated artist Martin Ansin. Originally released by Mondo/Alamo Drafthouse in 2009, this poster captures the terrifying elegance and tragic romance that defines The Phantom of the Opera. Ansin’s signature style elevates the source material, creating a must-have piece for serious collectors and classic horror aficionados.
The Iconic Red Death Masquerade Scene
The centerpiece of this dramatic illustration is the legendary Red Death costume, donned by the Phantom (Lon Chaney) during the famous Masquerade Ball scene. The massive, menacing figure, stylized as a skeleton in flowing scarlet robes and a wide-brimmed hat, looms large over the scene. Below, the terror is palpable: the terrified Christine Daaé recoils, while the unmasked, grotesque face of the Phantom himself stares out in anguish and madness.
A True Collector’s Screen Print
This poster is not just a piece of art; it’s a testament to the enduring power of cinematic horror and the brilliance of alternative movie poster design. Martin Ansin masterfully blends detailed character studies with grand architectural backdrops—the opera house’s staircase providing a stark, elegant stage for the chaos. Perfect for decorating a home theater, gallery wall, or adding a high-value piece to your Universal Monsters collection.
What You're Getting
Premium Quality, Every Print

Genuine heavyweight fine art matte paper — noticeably thicker than standard poster stock. Resists curling and feels substantial on the wall.
Ink & Longevity
75-Year Archival Inks
Fade-resistant pigment inks rated for 75+ years of indoor display — the same technology used in professional photography studios and fine art galleries.
Packaging

All sizes shown to scale — portrait & landscape orientations
After It Arrives
How to Frame & Display Your Print
Four simple steps, tube to wall — no tools, no specialist knowledge.
-
Unroll & Let It Relax
Remove from the tube and lay face-down on a clean flat surface for 20–30 minutes. The 200 GSM matte stock self-relaxes — any shipping curl releases without heat or moisture.
-
Pick a Standard Frame
Every size matches a standard off-the-shelf frame — IKEA HOVSTA, Target Threshold, Amazon Basics. An 18×24" drops in directly. No trimming, no custom framing.
-
Glass Is Optional
Our matte finish eliminates glare, so hanging without glass often shows more detail — particularly deep blacks and shadow gradients. If you prefer glass, use UV-protective acrylic.
-
Avoid Direct UV Sunlight
Archival pigment inks are rated for 75+ years indoors. Choose a wall with indirect or diffused natural light for the longest possible display life.
