Photo Overview
Publicity still released by RKO Radio Pictures shows Ingrid Bergman in character as Karin resting pensively on volcanic rocks while holding wild sprigs during a scene from Roberto Rossellini's dramatic feature “Stromboli,” filmed on the island of Stromboli, Aeolian Islands, Italy and distributed in 1950.
“Stromboli” launched Bergman’s landmark collaboration with Italian neorealist maestro Roberto Rossellini, a partnership that shook Hollywood both artistically and socially and later inspired modern location-shot filmmaking. Original studio stills from this controversial yet groundbreaking film remain scarce—secure this striking piece of classic-film history before someone else does.
