EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and eye-catching print captures a reproduction of a poster advertising the May Issue of Harper's Magazine in 1897. Created by the talented artist Edward Penfield, this colour lithograph measures 45x30 cm and is now part of a private collection. The poster itself is a true masterpiece, showcasing Penfield's exceptional talent for combining artistry with effective advertising. It was originally reproduced in Les Maitres de l'Affiche, further solidifying its significance in the world of graphic design. The image features an elegant cat perched on top of a stack of books, symbolizing the intellectual allure and sophistication that Harper's Magazine offers its readers. The feline companion adds an element of charm to the composition while emphasizing the magazine as both a trusted source for literary reviews and an essential monthly edition for American readers. Penfield's use of bold colours brings life to this vintage advertisement, making it stand out even after more than a century has passed since its creation. This piece serves as a testament to Penfield's mastery as an artist and his ability to seamlessly blend art with commercial purpose. As part of The Stapleton Collection, this print holds historical value and represents an era when printed advertisements were considered works of art themselves. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder allows admirers from around the world to appreciate Penfield's genius and experience firsthand the beauty captured within this timeless piece.
