This cover is astonishing! Could be 2021, not 1921.
Probably quite shocking in its day.
I think the artist is Albert Barbelle

I agree, it is just fantastic. It is hard to not just keep looking at it. It draws you in like great art is supposed to do. The artist hit it out of the park on this one and it also perfectly captures the attitude of the editorial era this issue of the mag was published in. That's why I had Mark change the thumbnail for this section to this issue. Perfect. |
