For generations, the fantasy musical The Wizard of Oz has held a cherished place in popular culture. The tale tells the story of DOROTHY, a Kansas farm girl transported to the magical Land of Oz.
With its extraordinary special effects, costumes, and sets rendered in vibrant colors, The Wizard of Oz represents one of the all-time greatest achievements in movie magic. In the movie, the enchanted slippers are rendered in a dazzling, sequined ruby red. This deliberate and clever choice of materials was designed to make them stand out in contrast to the YELLOW BRICK ROAD.
The RUBY SLIPPERS also played a central role in the film: Dorothy obtained them from GLINDA THE GOOD WITCH, and kept them away from the WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST, and then used their marvelous powers to take her home. One of only four known pairs of these magical shoes used in the movie is currently on display in the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. These shoes were donated anonymously in 1979 and are one of the museum’s most asked–about artifacts.
