Matte painting from THE MAGIC CARPET (1951)
Nice painting. The cool thing about it is that we see two versions of it: daytime and nighttime.
As for the movie itself, well, it's sorta forgotten for a good reason. It's not bad. It's fun to watch in a Matinee at the movies kinda way but nearly everyone in the cast, including Lucille Ball, is miscast. The hero (John Agar) is not much of a hero (his costume is terrible). Actors mispronounce Arabic words. It's more of an oddity today than anything else. A fun curio.
