John Philip FalterFather and children in front of TV - Mid-Century1950
1950
About the Item
John Falter arranges figures and faces in a way that rival the old masters in their compositional perfection. And he makes it look easy. The expressions are captured so the emotions of the story come alive. This Golden Age of illustration artist depicts fathers and children watching cartoons during the golden age of television. The appeal of this work lies in Falter's ability to convey the emotions of the sitters to the viewer. Most likely an illustration for the Saturday Evening Post, Esquire, Good Housekeeping, Cosmopolitan, McCall's, Life Magazine and Look or an ad for one of his blue chip corporate clients .
