This 18″x24″ book poster contains up to the last chapter, Chapter 26, of the English translation of Gaston Leroux’s novel The Phantom of the Opera. Here, the Phantom’s iconic mask gazes at a single rose.
Originally published in France as Le Fantôme de l’Opéra, The Phantom of the Opera follows Erik, the mysterious “ghost” of the Paris Opera, and his musical ingénue and romantic obsession, Christine. Throughout the novel, Christine harbors feelings of both sympathy and revulsion toward her teacher and captor, whose grasp she narrowly escapes in the end. Made famous by several Broadway, film and musical adaptations, The Phantom of the Opera is beloved for its themes of theatricality, tragic love and illusion.
