Hollywood Maestros

Max Steiner's sweeping themes, Bernard Herrmann's restless strings, Franz Waxman's grand adventures and Alfred Newman's stirring fanfares shaped how we felt about the movies, often without our noticing. Hollywood Maestros celebrates the composers who gave classic cinema its voice.

Our gallery pairs original, retro-inspired artwork with the films and scores that made these composers legends. Each piece brings together a film's imagery and the spirit of its music, in the bold, nostalgic style of mid-century poster art, designed to look at home in a living room, a studio or a music lover's den.

But the art is only part of the story. Every composer has a page with a brief biography highlighting their career, signature works and lasting influence, alongside the artwork inspired by their scores.

Whether you're a longtime soundtrack collector, a classic film fan or simply someone who finds that certain melodies stay with you, you'll find something here to discover, revisit and hang on your wall.
