Victor Olson (1924-2007) American, Saturday Evening Post Style Illustration. As a Norman Rockwell peer this is piece is probably the closest comparison that we have in this current sale. The gleeful daughter trying on hats as mom looks in from around the corner to make sure everything is ok. It is the iconic 1950s positive preservation of a simple yet happier time. A time capsule piece that represents an entire generation. Signed by the artist within the drawing bottom left. 

Provenance: Directly from daughter of the artist.

Condition: Sealed in plastic, but does have wear along some of the edges. 

Victor Olson, of Fanton Meadows, West Redding, Connecticut was a well known, award-winning Fairfield County artist, as well as an illustrator and graphic designer.  He has illustrated many national magazine covers for paperback publications and magazine stories for such publishers as Doubleday, Avon Books, MacFadden Books, Bantan and Monarch.  He began exhibiting when he was attending Bassic High School in Bridgeport, showing his many works in various galleries.  He attended Art Career School in New York City and worked in art studios, both in New York and Connecticut.
