Original Maxfield Parrish 1946 \"Valley Of Enchantment\" B&B Calendar - Period... For Sale

Celebrate the changing of the season with this amazing, original, uncut 1946 Brown & Bigelow calendar that features Maxfield Parrish\'s \"Valley of Contentment\" - a Romantic landscape piece that captures the quintessential colors of fall at their absolute peak. Produced in Tinto-gravure - a printing method that preserves the luminous, radiant use of color for which Parrish\'s landscape work is known - this piece positively glows. And it has been handled with such care that it looks as though it could have been created yesterday. The pictures really don\'t do it justice - you need to see this example of Brown & Bigelow advertising ephemera in person to appreciate the detail and the quality of Parrish\'s work. Housed in a potted gold, ornate,1940s period-correct frame that is in equally pristine condition, this golden-age illustration will make a spectacular piece of antique wall art, a standout addition to a Parrish collection, and a focal point that will grab people\'s attention wherever it is hung. Would also make a wonderful gift.
