Screenshot from Le Voyage dans la lune (A Trip to the Moon) (1902)

by Roger-Viollet

One of cinema's most iconic images: the Man in the Moon with a rocket capsule lodged in his eye, from Georges Méliès's "Le Voyage dans la Lune" (A Trip to the Moon, 1902). The moon is rendered as a grimacing human face, the capsule embedded like an arrow.
