This lovely gouache illustration was purchased at the Allentown Paper Show and I soon discovered that it had been a full-page illustration in St. Nicholas Magazine, a nationally-circulated monthly periodical for children. The vivid red contrasts with th4e texture of fur and the grays, whites, and blacks of a winter landscape. I was thrilled to once again work with Dr. Mary Holahan, a fellow Ph.D. graduate in art history at the University of Delaware, in selling it to the Delaware Art Museum, one of the country’s foremost museum collections of American illustration.
