Snappy Stories, March 2, 1925. Unfaithful Husbands. Enoch Bolles (1883-1976) cover art.Any commercial illustrator who specialized in pretty girls couldn’t help but do their own take on the model-artist relationship. This example ranks among the best. It’s fraught with tension both erotic and domestic. From his high deco period, it shows to good effect Bolles’ skills with watercolor. For the cover, Bolles added covering on the model, very likely a concession to the art editor, but then Bolles subtly keeps the story line intact with the addition of the nude canvas. -- source link
