Painting Description
"Advertisement for Luxite Hosiery by C. Coles Phillips" is a notable example of early 20th-century American advertising art, created by the renowned illustrator Clarence Coles Phillips (1880–1927). Phillips, often known as C. Coles Phillips, gained widespread acclaim for his distinctive style and the creation of the "fadeaway girl" motif, where the subject's clothing would blend seamlessly into the background, leaving only her elegant silhouette and accessories visible. This technique not only showcased Phillips's artistic skill but also cleverly emphasized the products being advertised.
The Luxite Hosiery advertisement is a quintessential representation of Phillips's approach to commercial art. Commissioned by the Hosiery company, this piece was designed to promote Luxite's line of women's stockings, a product that was a staple of female fashion during the era. The advertisement typically features a fashionable woman, often in a pose that exudes grace and sophistication, with her attire merging into the background in Phillips's signature fadeaway style. This artistic choice served to draw the viewer's attention to the hosiery, which remained in sharp contrast to the disappearing garments.
Phillips's work for Luxite Hosiery is significant not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its role in the evolution of advertising. His illustrations were among the first to recognize and capitalize on the power of visual allure in print advertising, setting a precedent for future artists and advertisers. The Luxite Hosiery advertisement, therefore, is not only a piece of commercial art but also a historical document that reflects the social and cultural trends of the early 1900s, particularly in relation to fashion, marketing, and the role of women in society.
The advertisement has been featured in various publications and retrospectives of Phillips's work, and it remains an important subject of study for those interested in the history of graphic design, advertising, and illustration. As a testament to its enduring legacy, the Advertisement for Luxite Hosiery by C. Coles Phillips continues to be celebrated for its innovative design and its influence on the visual language of advertising.
