N.p. N.p., Circa 1955. Vintage borderless reference photograph from the French version of the 1955 French-German film, showing actor Gil Vidal.

Based on Peter von Mendelssohn's 1932 novel "Douloureuse Arcadie." While staying at a lakeside boarding school in Bavaria, a young man from Argentina falls in love with a ghostly beauty living in a mansion across the lake. Shot in both French and German versions, each with a different cast, except for Marianne Hold in the lead role.

Set in Bavaria, shot on location at Hohenschwangau Castle and Schloss Fuschl in Salzberg.

7 x 5.25 inches. Very Good plus, with a light diagonal crease on the top portion of the photograph.
