Description: Vintage D. Mastroianni real photo postcard depicting Eunice's kiss (of a statue of Mercury?) in Quo Vadis. From Mastroianni's Quo Vadis series of postcards.

This consisted of sculpting a scene and lighting it entirely for the camera, the sculpture usually being destroyed after its photograph was taken. He produced many hundreds of pictures for postcards using this technique.
