Description: That Jantzen Girl is Here Again! is a Alberto Vargas (Varga) Jantzen Knitting Mills Illustration. It appeared in a 1941(most likely LIFE) magazine. It is 10.25" x 14" and is in excellent condition. Alberto Vargas (1896–1982) was a renowned Peruvian-American painter, best known for his glamorous pin-up girls. He gained widespread fame in the 1940s, particularly for his work in “Esquire” magazine, where his illustrations of beautiful, idealized women became known as "Vargas Girls." His style is characterized by soft, airbrushed techniques, creating sensual and elegant portrayals of women. Before his iconic work in “Esquire”, Vargas worked in Hollywood during the 1930s, painting posters and portraits for movie studios. After World War II, his pin-up art became synonymous with wartime morale, and later in the 1960s and 1970s, he continued his work with “Playboy”, where his art found a new audience. Vargas’ art is celebrated for its refinement, technical skill, and tasteful sensuality, and his influence endures in pop culture, fashion, and advertising.
