About the Item
Medium: Oil on Board
Signature: Signed Lower Left
Original cover illustration for The Saturday Evening Post, July 28, 1956.
The Post described, “The cows don't realize it is rude to stare at a person without saying anything. They are reflecting that men seem to do goofier things than any other animals, and are keeping their thoughts to themselves, as they dont speak English. Does the surveyor fear the cows? Only mildly; mostly it is women who get conniption fits from cows. But those boring eyes are addling his concentration so that he knows not whether he is adding or subtracting. If the editor who is writing these words had a cow staring over his shoulder, he would, in the long run, scream. Amos Sewell’s cowscape emphasizes that cows are remarkable starers. Did you ever notice a herd of them parked on a hill, every one peering fixedly in the same direction? What would they be looking at? Tomorrow?”

View AllSouth for the Winter, Saturday Evening Post Cover
By John Ford Clymer
Located in Fort Washington, PA
Cover of The Saturday Evening Post, October 26, 1957 showing ducks in autumn flying south for the winter
The Post described, "When Jack Frost whistles down the breezeways, right-minded birds take off toward the balmy Southland. Some human beings are depressed because they haven't wings to do likewise, yet, all told, it's probably nicer to be a man than, say, a mallard duck. This is a migratory flyway in the lakelands of Alberta, favored by birds of that feather which like to swipe their meals from grainfields and rest their weary bones on soft, or even hard, water. Down the Mississippi Valley this sky traffic will v-wint its way, and the smarter ducks that go clear to the Gulf Coast can take a gander at the New Orleans Mardi Gras...
