Maxfield Parrish!!
Another one of my ‘heroes’ from that era.
As different from the average poster artist as can be.
Max took what was grand in nature and made it grandiose.
Some would consider most his pieces as Candy-Coated Visions from Heaven. The vistas of sunny skyscapes make the heart beat faster.
Last I heard the wonderful Maxfield Parrish Old King Cole tryptych survives in NYC’s St. Regis Hotel.
For a brief monent in the mid-70’s they had the best Champaign Happy Hour deal ever, only one day a week. Can’t recall the exact cost but very close to retail. My wife and office friends took advantage...good times.
