Description
This elegant Art Nouveau illustration, signed by Will H. Bradley, depicts sinuous figures and ornate birds rendered in delicate line work against a white background, evoking the flowing organic forms characteristic of the 1890s decorative arts movement. The masthead reads 'The Inland Printer, Thanksgiving Number, Vol. XIV, No. 2, 1894,' identifying this as a cover design for The Inland Printer, the influential Chicago-based trade magazine that became a showcase for cutting-edge American graphic arts and printing during the Gilded Age. Bradley, sometimes called 'the American Beardsley,' contributed numerous celebrated covers to this publication that helped define the American Art Nouveau poster style.
