Willy Pogany: Sketch of Snow White and a bear (early 1940s)
This was a pencil study for a painting on the cover of Hearst’s weekly tabloid “The American Weekly.” In the finished piece (circa 1942) the lucky bear had a second beautiful maiden on his left side. The girls were identified as Snow White and Rose Red. The bear remained anonymous, but happy.
