The artist's work frequently appeared in American periodicals of the 1910s and 20s, and this image of a young woman and collie striding through a stand of birches is a prime example of his famed "fadeaway" style and originally graced the cover of a 1911 issue of <i>Life </i>magazine.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Coles Phillips (1880-1927) was among the most in-demand illustrators in his field during the 1910s and 20s. A dynamic and highly skilled watercolor artist and draftsman, Coles did dozens of covers for mainstream American magazines. In 1908 he created a style in which the figure in the foreground blended seamlessly into the background, rendering some amount of the clothing invisible, save for the edges. Dubbed "The Fadeaway," the eye-catching technique became a huge hit and was employed to great effect by the artist for the rest of his career.
