In the 1930s, '40s, and '50s -- if you saw a sketch or portrait of a child
on the cover of Ladies Home Journal or Woman's Home Companion,
or inside the magazines' advertising, say, Colgate's Talc Powder, Cream of Wheat,
or Squibb's Cod Liver Oil, you were probably seeing the work of Maud Tausey
Fangel. For a good part of the first half of the twentieth century, Ms. Fangel
was the children's artist in our country -- her illustrations of ruddy-cheeked,
(showing 500 of 2952 characters). |
