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.

Exhibited: Christie's New York, Illustrating America: Norman Rockwell and His Contemporaries, November 30, 2013- January, 2014 A luminous and rare Golden Age of Illustration cover...
