These darling book lovers were illustrated by the skilled Jessie Willcox Smith for the December 1909 cover of McClure's Magazine, a prominent American monthly periodical celebrated for its investigative and watchdog journalism during the turn of the 20th century. The illustration captures the essence of literary enchantment, adding a touch of charm to the magazine's reputation for informative and insightful content! See this image on a greeting card!
Jessie Willcox Smith (1863-1935), a cherished name at Laughing Elephant, wields a remarkable artistic legacy. Mentored by Howard Pyle, an illustrious influence, she emerged as a formidable woman artist in the Golden Age of Illustration, defying norms in a male-dominated realm—she was among the highest-paid illustrators of her time! Beyond the canvas, she left her mark on nearly 200 Good Housekeeping magazine covers while gracing classic children's books and creating artistic ads for iconic brands like Ivory Soap and Kodak. Sensitivity to the human experience and idealized images such as motherhood and childhood archetypes defined her work.
