New Yorker is original artwork in China ink and tempera on ivory-colored paper, made by the Swedish illustrator and reporter Adolf Reinhold Hallman in 1956. Hand-signed on the lower left and dated. The state of preservation is good and aged paper, especially along the margins. This artwork represents a profile of a woman with reddish sunset in the background and there are figures in the composition created by harmonious and congruous colors masterly. Adolf Hallman (1893 – 1968) was a Swedish illustrator who sensibly contributed to Swedish, Danish and Norwegian newspapers and magazines, including Tidens Tegn, Dagbladet, Exlex and Politiken. Among his books is På Boulevard Europa. He illustrated editions of Charles Baudelaire's Fleurs du Mal and Guy de Maupassant's Boule de Suif. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
