INSIDE GREETING: I just wanted to say, Hello.
Magazine artist Will Rannells transforms a noble hound into a salty man of the sea in this versatile card, perfect for a friend. This old sea dog first appeared on the September 3, 1925, cover of Life magazine, and it continues to delight our canine-loving customers today! See this image as an art print!
Will Rannells (1892-1982) made an enduring impact in art as both an illustrator and an educator. His illustrious career spanned several decades, during which he held the esteemed position of Professor of Commercial Art at Ohio State University for 35 years. Rannells' artistic journey took an intriguing turn when he transitioned from creating illustrations of beautiful girls to dogs, a decision that led to his first commercial success—a captivating portrait of a collie that had previously been in the arms of a girl. His exceptional talent for portraying dogs in heartwarming and playful scenes soon caught the attention of renowned publications like Judge, Life, and McCall's, where his delightful dog portraits adorned their covers for years!
This product was custom-designed and created at our location in Seattle.
