Grandma gets the gold ring, illustration from painting by Henry J. Hintermeister

The vintage illustrations of Henry Gintermeister (1897–1972) will leave no one indifferent: these are works of the very genre and style that so fully capture the spirit of America in the first half of the 20th century. Together with his father, Henry created more than 1,000 illustrations, most of them situational, i.e. pictures - stories. Their work has been exhibited in numerous museums and galleries, and connoisseurs around the world admire the authors' skill.
