Abstract
This paper examines the influences of pictorial models on Carl Theodor Dreyer's films. It demonstrates that James Whistler's paintings, Johann Heinrich Füssli's The Nightmare, and Vilhelm Hammershøi's' interior scenes have an essential role in the staging and aesthetic of Dreyer's filmography, including The President, Vampyr and e Gertrud respectively.
