At some point over the past 3 years I found the Saul Tepper signature mark deciphered and also stumbled across the original of the gal with the cigarette (though I forget offhand where I put the image). The latter discovery took a while, and was accidental. I really should have updated the post ... but it was so old I'd forgotten about it.<br /><br />Nevertheless I really appreciate your findings because I easily might never have discovered the cigarette ad.Donald Pittengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11307228686847434740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589105760911453392.post-21314784965311871092018-06-16T06:54:57.656-07:002018-06-16T06:54:57.656-07:00Very nice :-)

I can imagine being present as that couple danced past, at just that moment, in just that pose.<br /><br />The other works had their points of interest -- particularly the women in their wind tossed dresses up on chairs in the Lorenzi illusration -- but they seem rather too static, and rather too idealized. Rather too much like magazine illustrations, I guess. <br /><br />Eastman's woman-in-red and the cigarette-smoking woman-in-woman ... I find myself thinking <i>Hopper could have made something of them.</i>mike shupphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08383379836883992742noreply@blogger.com
