Mabel Rollins Harris

Mabel Rollins Harris (early 20th century) was active/lived in United States.  Mabel Harris is known for High color, pastel child, female and nude figure, calendar illustration.

From the late 1930s until the end of the 1930s, exqusite pastels by Mabel Rollins Harris were among the most admired in the calendar-art business. Many of her great Art Deco pin-ups effectively expressed the magic and mystery inherent in the romantic themes that were so popular during the era.

She was particularly known for spectacular nudes such as Golden Dawn (female nude posed by water) and Storm Queen (female nude stretched out on rock above water), which were kept in the catalog of the Joseph C. Hoover and Sons calendar company for seven consecutive years.

Rollins' three pin-ups for the Thomas D. Murphy Company during the late 1920s aroused the admiration of Rolf Armstrong, who told the firm's art director that he envied the brilliant glow and softness of her finished pastels. Of her pin-ups during the 1930s for the Gertach-Barklow Calendar Company, the most successful was another nude, seated in the moonlight on a rock surrounded by deep blue water.[Displaying 1000 of 2325 characters.]  Artist bio
