Medium: Oil on Canvas
Signature: Signed Lower Right
Sight Size 38.25" x 29.25", Framed 45" x 35"
Cover of The Saturday Evening Post Magazine, June 13, 1925
Edmund Davenport was a New Yorker and a successful illustrator in the 1920’s. He painted covers for Women’s Home Companion and The Saturday Evening Post, and at the same time, he worked in the art department of Paramount Studios.
At the time of this publication, a young woman’s graduation from college was a rare accomplishment, and the opportunities for employment that required a college diploma, were even rarer. Nevertheless, it was a good reason for this pretty, young woman to be sitting on top of the world in the vicinity of “cloud nine.” “Top of the World” appeared on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post on June 13, 1925.
