Original cover illustration for The Saturday Evening Post, September 25 1948.
The Post described, “A father who expects his son to be President, as all good fathers should, is very likely — when he visits Washington — to photograph his young candidate against the background of the White House, in a pose befitting one who will someday take over the joint. Artist George Huges saw it happen many times while camped outside the White House last May, getting started on this cover. Hughes did preliminary work on the spot, but he finished painting in Arlington, Vermont, home of several Post cover artists. The Washington sight-seeing guide at the left is really one of Hughes’ Arlington neighbors, as are almost all the other people in the picture. All but one — the proud father. He is really a Washington sight-seeing guide.”
