"Beautiful Gardens" Art Deco Painting for Ladies Home Journal, Horn and Hardart

About the Item

Painted in brilliant shades of fuscia, persimmon, olive green and aquamarine, this original gouache painting was painted to advertise the Ladies Home Journal in a Horn and Hardart automat. Both the Journal, published by the Curtis Publishing Company, and the Horn and Hardart restaurant chain were headquartered in Philadelphia, so an advertising partnership was advantageous to both. This painting shows a stylized female figure in a large floppy hat, surrounded by a profusion of flowers and a gabled cottage in the background, all in a high Art Deco style. The medium is gouache on paper or artist board.
