"American Olympics 1928, " Spectacular Art Deco Drawing of Stadium Entrance
About the Item
Although the Olympics in 1928 were held in Amsterdam, Lee Seibert drew this vivid and colorful image of the main entrance to the stadium as if it were in America, the sky glowing with a rainbow-hued aureole and the scene attracting sophisticated men and women in evening clothes. Indeed, the 1932 Olympics, held in Los Angeles, featured an arched entrance not unlike this one. Seibert created this image while a student at Penn State University, and later went on to work for Bethlehem Steel Corporation and Vultee Aircraft Corporation. He eventually became a partner at Muhlenberg Brothers, a firm in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania. This drawing is executed in pastel; dimensions include the frame.

View All"Triton and Nymph, " Art Deco Drawing by Lincoln Kirstein Associate, 1928
By William Littlefield
Located in Philadelphia, PA
A fine and bold drawing by William Littlefield, this piece depicts male and female nude figures in an embrace, the male figure inspired by Nicholas Podiapolski, Littlefield's model and lover in the late 1920s.

This drawing was completed in St. Tropez, during an extended stay in Europe that gave him a close acquaintance with Italian and other classical art.
