Pearl FrushPin Up Girl in Red Dress, Mid-Century, Female Artist1945
1945
About the Item
The Pin-Up of ravishing young beauties in mid-century America was a widely popular art form. The assumption that Pin-Up art was the exclusive domain of men is a misnomer. Female illustrators/artists flushed at the turn of the century, and towards mid-century, a few did Pin-Ups as well. Along with Joyce Ballantyne, and Zoë Mozert, Pearl Frush was a member of the select "Girl's Club". This work of a smiling brunette poised to snap the viewers photo is a great example of Frush's work and was published in Gerlach-Barklow calendar and appears as figure 464. It also appeared in The Great American Pin-Up by Charles G. Martignette and Louis K. Meisel (Taschen, 1996).
