Family Time at Home, 1924

Artifact Overview

In 1924-25 the Ford Motor Company ran a series of sixteen dramatic advertisements in the Saturday Evening Post and Country Gentleman magazines. The effectiveness of the ads was due in large part to the specially commissioned artwork that accompanied the descriptive text. This painting appeared as two segments -- losing some of its content in the process -- when reproduced as part of the 15th ad.
