Mabel Rollins Harris was an illustrator who specialized in children's art. Her pictures take on an almost surreal quality. She posed her models in a studio and over lit them with multiple light sources creating a shadowless rendition of form. Undoubtedly she is the finest female illustrator of the Art Deco era. She is featured in Charles G. Martignette's The Great American Pin-Up. From the late 1920s through the early 1940s, her work was widely featured on calendars, greeting cards and in magazines and was also reproduced on jigsaw puzzles and hand fans.
