Item Details
Description
ROBERT BERNARD ROBINSON (American 1886-1952) "Sleeping Sheriff" Oil on canvas. 26 x 20 1/2 inches. Signed lower center: Robt. Robinson ©. CONDITION: In overall good condition. The canvas has been cut down and wax relined. The canvas has been heavily varnished; was not examined under black light. Robert Robinson was an American illustrator and the originator of the "Saturday Evening Post's" "Slice of Life" style of cover art; which was later popularized by Norman Rockwell. Robinson also created cover artwork for the Hearst Corporation and the "Motor Magazine" from 1926-1952 when he passed away. He created 38 covers for the Saturday Evening Post at least 15 of which feature the delightful white-bearded men as the one featured in this painting. It is unclear whether this work was ever used as cover art for the magazine.
