More about this artwork

This striking painting by Edward Penfield, titled "Woman And A Vintage Car," presents a stylized and iconic image from early 20th-century American art. The work is graphic in style, typical of Penfield's illustrations, which were influential in the development of graphic design in America.The central figure in the painting is a woman dressed in an eye-catching, long orange coat with large black buttons and a broad collar. Her attire is complemented by an intriguingly patterned black and white skirt and she wears a matching hat, giving her a fashionable and somewhat adventurous appearance. This choice of outfit suggests a sense of modernity and style that was associated with the early adopters of automobile culture.The vintage car, partially visible behind her, features elegant and detailed craftsmanship, emphasizing the luxury and novelty of automobiles during this era. The wheel of the car is particularly prominent, painted with realistic detail that contrasts with the more stylized depiction of the woman and her clothes.The background includes bold text that reads "Automobile Number," suggesting that this painting may have been part of an advertisement or a magazine cover related to automobiles, a common subject in Penfield's commercial art.

Edward Penfield (1866-1925) was an influential American poster artist, considered as the father of the American poster movement. He was employed as an art editor for Harper’s Weekly, Monthly, and Harper’s Bazaar, where he made posters advertising each issue of the magazine for over seven years. His art was avant-garde with less concern for the dramatic curving lines of Art Nouveau, inspired by Japanese ukiyo-e block prints, figure drawings by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, color lithographies by Jules Chéret, and other contemporary artists. He created simplified scenes of daily life in saturated colors, including horses, cats, sports, and women’s fashion.
