About the Item

Medium: Oil on Canvas Signature: Signed Size: 31.00" x 35.00" From Lincoln, Nebraska, Mortimer Wilson, Jr. had a rich, sumptuous style of painting, based in part on his training as a portraitist. His father, conductor of the Atlanta Symphony ad a composer, had wanted his son to follow a musical career, but both violin and piano were discarded when Mortimer showed a genuine interest in drawing and painting. Wilson became a popular illustrator for American Magazine, The Saturday Evening Post, and Woman’s Home Companion, as well as for advertisers such as Maxwell House Coffee and Woodbury Facial Soap.
