Grab your crew! It’s #InternationalDayofFriendship⁣⁣. 📸 🌙 ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
At the height of the picture-postcard craze in the early 20th century, photography studios at beach resorts, carnivals, and downtown arcades offered sitters a variety of playful props and backdrops. Among the most popular was the "paper moon"—a cutout crescent moon, usually enhanced with a smiling face, set against a field of stars. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
“Man in the Moon” portraits, as they were known at the time, were probably inspired by Georges Méliès’s film, "A Trip to the Moon"—specifically, a scene in which the space travelers fall asleep and dream of a lunar deity suspended on a crescent moon.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
See more moon-cradled BFFs in "Apollo's Muse: The Moon in the Age of Photography," now on view. #MetApollosMuse #Apollo50⁣⁣⁣
