The Mystique of Howard Chandler Christy

Jim Head, author and expert on artist Howard Chandler Christy takes us back to the early 1900s when illustrators made cover girls famous and were the media darlings- and practically rock stars- of their era. Christy both lived and painted in the famed UWS studio building, the landmarked Hôtel des Artistes. Many are familiar with the lush murals of cavorting nymphs by Christy that adorn the walls of ground-floor restaurant there, but who was Christy?
