At one time, Harrison Fishers Fisher Girl was as well-known as The Gibson Girl. Cosmopolitan Magazine in the 1920s called Harrison Fisher, The Worlds Greatest Artist saying that There is an underlying ideal that dominates his paintings. His ideal type has come to be regarded as the type of American beauty: girls, young with the youth of a new country, strong with the vitality of buoyant good health, fresh with clear-eyed brightness, athletic, cheerful, sympathetic, and beautiful. Theodore Brown Hapgood, Jr. (18711938) designed book covers, bookplates, posters, and a set of type ornaments, known as Hapgood florets. His cover designs were often based on floral and branch motifs, reminiscent of Renaissance woodcut borders seen on title pages and chapter headings.…
