Cinema and painting have always maintained a rich and fascinating dialogue. Through subtle references or explicit tributes, the seventh art highlights iconic works and immortalizes painters and canvases on screen. In return, cinema's cult images shape our collective imagination and inspire many contemporary artists.
Some legendary figures of the big screen have become recurring motifs in painting, like Marilyn Monroe, glorified by Andy Warhol in 1962 with his famous Marilyn Diptych. Other artists reinterpret legendary film scenes or revisit iconic posters, playing with cinematic codes to create unique works.

Cinema has had a significant impact on painting throughout history, inspiring artists to experiment with new techniques and styles. From the use of cinematic lighting and composition to the depiction of cinematic themes and characters, cinema has influenced the way painters approach their craft and create their art.
Some famous paintings that have been featured in movies include "The Mona Lisa" in "The Da Vinci Code," "Starry Night" in "Loving Vincent," and "Girl with a Pearl Earring" in the movie of the same name. These paintings add depth and meaning to the films they appear in.
Cinema and painting use different techniques to convey visual storytelling. While cinema relies on motion, sound, and editing, painting uses color, composition, and brushwork. However, both mediums can complement each other by utilizing similar principles of visual storytelling, such as framing, lighting, and perspective.
