Limited Edition Photograph (learn more)
In stock
MARY COLLINSON and MADELEINE COLLINSON appear together as Maria and Frieda Gellhorn in this striking color publicity photograph for TWINS OF EVIL (1971), dressed in matching gold period dresses against a glowing red-orange studio background. Standing side by side with their hands clasped and gazes turned in the same direction, the real-life identical twins create an elegant near-symmetry that makes their extraordinary resemblance the defining visual element of the image. The saturated color, coordinated costumes and carefully controlled pose give this photograph an especially distinctive identity within Hammer’s extensive promotion of the Collinson twins.
Directed by JOHN HOUGH for Hammer Film Productions, TWINS OF EVIL stars Mary as Maria Gellhorn and Madeleine—billed onscreen as Madelaine Collinson—as Frieda Gellhorn, opposite PETER CUSHING as Gustav Weil and Damien Thomas as Count Karnstein. The film deliberately contrasts the physically identical sisters through their opposing characters, with Maria remaining cautious while Frieda is increasingly drawn toward Karnstein and vampirism. The Collinson twins themselves became central to the production after producer Harry Fine encountered their celebrated 1970 magazine appearance, making paired publicity photographs an important part of the film’s original promotional identity.
Carefully restored from archival photographic materials and professionally lab-developed, this museum-quality photograph is presented uncropped, preserving the complete image area contained in the original archival source. The combination of MARY and MADELEINE COLLINSON, matching gold period dresses, synchronized posing and vivid Hammer color publicity styling gives this photograph a distinctive collectible identity for admirers of TWINS OF EVIL, Hammer Horror, the Karnstein Trilogy and classic British vampire cinema.
