The artwork titled “Snowman, Ad Illustration,” was created by Haddon Sundblom circa 1950 in the United States. Rendered in oil on board and canvas, this piece belongs to the Kitsch art movement and measures 30.48 by 68.58 cm. The artwork serves as an advertisement and typifies the genre with its engaging and vibrant depiction.
In this delightful and evocative advertising illustration, a cheerful snowman is embraced by a jubilant young person wearing a bright red outfit and a whimsically striped hat. The snowman, characterized by its traditional carrot nose and coal eyes, sporting a contented smile, is set against a clear blue sky that enhances the artwork’s lively and cheerful ambiance. The bright colors and playful interaction between the figures contribute to the piece’s nostalgic and inviting charm, typical of the Kitsch style.
