{"product_id":"new-yorker-cover-43-1","title":"The Royal Lounge- The New Yorker","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis enchanting New Yorker cover from March 1956 showcases Mary Petty at her finest, capturing a moment of gentle domestic comedy in an opulent Victorian bedroom. A maid on hands and knees searches beneath an ornate brass bed while the lady of the house sits propped against pillows, absorbed in her reading, blissfully unaware of the servant's labors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePetty's meticulous watercolor technique renders every detail of upper-class life with loving precision: the sage-green swags of drapery trimmed with pompoms, the busy floral wallpaper, the coral bedspread, and the collection of decorative objects crowding the nightstand. The humor emerges from the contrast between aristocratic ease and the physical realities of maintaining such a household.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standout piece for collectors of New Yorker covers and mid-century American illustration, this work exemplifies Petty's four-decade contribution to the magazine's distinctive visual identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.25\" x 8.75\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mary Petty\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, * Please note that this listing is for the cover artwork, and not the magazine as a whole.
