Screenshot from Le Voyage dans la lune (A Trip to the Moon) (1902) by Roger-Viollet One of cinema's most iconic images: the Man in the Moon with a rocket capsule lodged in his eye, from Georges Méliès's "Le Voyage dans la Lune" (A Trip to the Moon, 1902). The moon is rendered as a grimacing human face, the capsule embedded like an arrow. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_M%C3%A9li%C3%A8s#/media/Fichier:Le_Voyage_dans_la_lune.jpg/2
