Limited Edition Photograph (learn more)
In stock
YUTTE STENSGAARD appears as Mircalla Herritzen in this atmospheric black-and-white publicity photograph from LUST FOR A VAMPIRE (1971), seated gracefully on weathered stone steps in a flowing white nightgown. The contrast between Stensgaard’s warm expression, delicate costume and the aged Gothic surroundings creates a fascinating image of beauty placed within Hammer’s world of supernatural danger. The natural outdoor setting and relaxed composition give this photograph a distinctive character compared with more formal vampire imagery.
Directed by JIMMY SANGSTER for Hammer Film Productions, LUST FOR A VAMPIRE stars Stensgaard as Mircalla Herritzen alongside Michael Johnson as Richard LeStrange, Ralph Bates and Suzanna Leigh. The second entry in Hammer’s Karnstein cycle followed THE VAMPIRE LOVERS (1970) and continued the studio’s exploration of the vampire mythology inspired by Sheridan Le Fanu’s CARMILLA. The film remains notable for its Gothic locations, supernatural themes and Stensgaard’s memorable portrayal of Mircalla.
Carefully restored from original studio-issued archival material and professionally lab-developed, this museum-quality photograph is presented uncropped, preserving the complete image area contained in the archival material. The combination of YUTTE STENSGAARD as Mircalla, the flowing white nightgown, Gothic stone setting and Hammer’s Karnstein vampire tradition gives this photograph a distinctive identity for collectors of Hammer Horror, vampire cinema and classic film photography.
This image’s elegant outdoor composition makes it a particularly appealing companion to other LUST FOR A VAMPIRE photographs featuring Mircalla’s darker supernatural identity.
