Том Ловелл (Tom Lovell) | 1937 - 1960


Colorado by Louis Bromfield. 1947


Том Ловелл (Tom Lovell; 1909-1997) — американский художник, иллюстратор популярных журналов, живописатель Дикого Запада. Считая себя "рассказчиком с кистью, хранителем прошлого", художник кропотливо изучал и воспроизводил весь исторический антураж с максимальной достоверностью. Мастер композиции и чудесный физиономист он отображал в своих картинах все нюансы человеческих эмоций с переживанием и воображением. Поступательным движением к совершенству и неизменной человечностью, искусство Тома Ловелла в разных жанрах и техниках, лично у меня, вызывает искреннее восхищение. Приведённые здесь иллюстрации, непринуждённо лирические и обаятельные, частью раскрывают пласт творчества художника связанный с публикациями в глянцевых журналах.

Tom Lovell (1909-1997) was an American artist, illustrator for popular magazines, and painter of the American West. Considering himself a “storyteller with a brush, a custodian of the past,” the artist reproduced the entire historical entourage with the utmost authenticity and care. A master of composition and a marvelous physiognomist, he displayed in his life-filled paintings all the nuances of human emotion with experience and imagination. The illustrations presented here, effortlessly lyrical and moderately glamorous, partly reveal the layer of the artist's amazing work associated with publications in glossy magazines.

In 1914, she continued her studies at the Art Students League in New York City, also working as a fashion designer. In 1915, McMein sold her first cover to The Saturday Evening Post. Almost everything that is exciting and best in a woman is reflected in her cover portraits: blooming youth, exciting beauty, intelligence, and an enigmatic appeal. The covers were very popular and brought the artist many commissions. From 1923 to 1937, Neysa McMain contributed to McCall's, Women's Home Companion, Collier's, Ladies' Home Journal, and McClure's. The artist died of an embolism suffered during cancer surgery in New York City on May 12, 1949.
