Storyboards from the film adaptation of ''For Whom the Bell Tolls''. Sam Wood directed Ingrid Bergman and Gary Cooper in the successful adaptation of Hemingway's classic anti-war romance. These scenes are from the climactic bridge explosion sequence. Four paper boards contain four frames each, a total of 16 illustrations in charcoal and watercolor. Art for the movie set in Spain during its civil war is rendered in a bleak color palette of greys and browns save for a glimpse of blue sky in two frames, though the film won the Academy Award for Best Color Cinematography and marked Bergman's first role in Technicolor. Each board measures 20'' x 15'', with each frame measuring 8'' x 6.5''. Some smudging and abrasions to border areas, bumping to corners and pencil notations to verso. Very good overall with the illustrations themselves in near fine condition. Provenance originally from the estate of the movie's editor, John Link, and from Bonhams' auction of Entertainment Memorabilia including Animation Art, held in Los Angeles on 24 June 2012, lot 1117.
