Dimensions Framed: 11.5in x19.5in Weight: 2.5lbs Artists History: Fox began his career as an illustrator in 1900 after he moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Between 1904 and 1920 he and his second wife, moved frequently but kept within the vicinity of Philadelphia, finally settling in West Long Branch, New Jersey. He became a successful commercial illustrator—commissioned by major calendar companies and art print publishers. His work appeared as art prints, calendars, advertising pieces, ink blotters, candy, handkerchief and jewelry boxes, magazine covers, children's books, newspaper inserts, postcards, puzzles, and thermometers. His subjects included genre (women and children), landscapes, enchanted gardens, country-sides, cottages, animals and pets. He also painted Indians and Indian maidens and the “Wild West”, although he had never visited the West, and historical and contemporary themes, hunting and fishing scenes, adventure, ships, and historic figures such as Washington, Lafayette, Franklin and Theodore Roosevelt. Fox worked for many other publishers, including Brown and Bigelow of St. Paul, Minnesota, Edward Gross & Co. of New York, Master Art Publishers, Chicago, The Red Wing Advertising Company, and the Thomas D. Murphy Co. of Red Oak, Iowa among others. His commercial work has been compared to that of another Philadelphia artist, Maxfield Parrish. Some of Fox’s work is either unsigned or signed with a fictitious name.
