Flapper Hats
Description: The Flapper is an illustration by Frank Xavier Leyendecker, the lesser-known of the two Leyendecker brothers, both of whom were extremely talented illustrators. The image form suggests a young lady maturing into adulthood during the jazz age with her provocative clothing and bright colors providing notional rejection of the conservative mores of behavior and dress that a 'proper' young lady of the time was supposed to adhere to. This particular piece was created as a cover for Life in 1922, but saw a resurgence in popularity as a poster in the '70s.
Description: "El chimpancé enamorado" (The Chimpanzee in Love), created by the famous Spanish cartoonist, animator, and caricaturist Joaquín Xaudaró in Paris in 1912. It was later published in the Spanish magazine Blanco y Negro in January 1913 under the caption "Para quién es esta naranja?" (Who is this orange for?)
Description: This piece features a stylized portrait of a 1920s fashion icon, complete with a classic finger-wave hairstyle and a shimmering beaded collar. Set against a mesmerizing, geometric mosaic of deep sapphire, midnight black, and radiant gold, the artwork captures the anti-traditional elegance and machine-age sophistication that defined the Art Deco movement.
Description: xIntroducing "Wonder Woman 1924" by the visionary artist, Izzit-Reel. This captivating Ai-assisted digital artwork transports you to the roaring 1920s, reimagining Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman in a unique and nostalgic light. With a nod to the Silent Generation, Izzit-Reel's creation showcases Wonder Woman with 1920s-inspired hair and costume, exuding a touch of vintage charm. In this portrait, Gal Gadot, in her Wonder Woman persona, wields the Sword of Justice, its gleam and lens flares artfully obscuring the skirt's high side cut, adding an air of mystery and allure. Her expression and posture carry a hint of shyness and humility, deviating from the usual powerful depictions of the iconic character.
Description: The first version of the club opened in Greenwich Village in 1922, run by cousins Jack Kriendler and Charlie Berns. It was originally a small speakeasy known as the Red Head. In 1925 the location was moved to a basement on Washington Place and its name was changed to Frontón. The following year it moved uptown to 42 West 49th Street, changed its name to the Puncheon Club, and became much more exclusive.[3] In late 1929, to make way for the construction of Rockefeller Center, the club moved to its current location and changed its name to "Jack and Charlie's 21".
