Some set photos for Shutter Island from http://www.flickr.com/photos/mushupig/ Boardroom Tudor Mansion Commandant's Office Ext. Dachau Latex Body Hundreds of these were delivered in carboard boxes shipped from Italy. The shop looked really spooky for one night.

Thank you, Joke. Can we identify this painting?

Joke Some great interior "SI" pix.... :) :) Can really see that Dante Ferretti has already done his magic :) Arnzilla As to painting...my 'pea sized mind' has no idea...but she does appear to be near water like our Dolores........so I'll go for "Lady of the Lake' :roll:

Joke, thanks so much! These are incredible. Can't recall seeing this painting before. I'm going to attempt a search, anyway...

At the Turner Hill website, they show several photos of the mansion rooms and areas as they are usually, including the following two: This is the room they used for the boardroom: And this one, they used for the Tudor Mansion:

Will Thanks for explanation about the earlier set pix :) So we are not looking at newly constructed 'sound stages' ...rather we are looking at rooms that already existed at Turner Hill that have had furniture/paintings/etc 'added' to fit the 'look' that Scorsese wanted for the Cawley/Naehring office scenes ....

Thanks for the set pictures. They are certainly going to be 'rich' looking interiors for the 1950's. Guess they lived well in institutions back then. Beautiful!

Yes, they're gothing it up as much as possible. I'm currently watching Gaslight and the house in the film has a lot of similar elements. I don't see a phonograph in the mansion photos, though.

Gaslight! I love that film, I've been watching it a lot lately and when I first saw it a few months back I thought Shutter Island could have some similar elelments in a way. Mainly the psychological thriller element.

will- 03-21-2008

Yes, and with her thinking she's going crazy... I hope SI has similar lighting. Bright in the middle and dark around the edge.

It reminds me that final scene in Eyes Wide Shut with Tom Cruise & Sidney Pollack in the pool room. Doesn't it?

Pfffew, wiping sweat of forehead, it took me a lot of searching but I found the painting at http://www.art-for-a-change.com/blog/2005/08/degenerate-art-then-and-now.html "Judgment of Paris" - Oil painting by Nazi artist, Ivo Saliger Another favored artist included in the Great German Art Exhibit was Ivo Saliger, whose Judgment of Paris (1939), depicted the Greek myth… but with a twist. Contemporary viewers see Saliger's canvas as nothing more than an academic painting, an exercise in classical figurative realism - yet the work is an ideological diatribe. Saliger portrayed Paris dressed in a Hitler Youth uniform as he decided upon the most beautiful example of Aryan womanhood. Again, a difficult question arises - that of identifying the ideology inherent in images placed before us. If I had not revealed to you the story behind Saliger’s painting, would you have identified the artwork as implicitly fascist?

Well done Joke, interesting!
