The following Text is from Wikipedia - the free encyclopaedia.

Bessie Pease Gutmann (8 April 1876 – 29 September 1960) was an American Artist and Illustrator, initially as Bessie Collins Pease, most noted for her paintings of putti, infants, and young children.


During the Early-1900s, she was one of the better-known Magazine and Book Illustrators in The United States. Her artwork was featured on twenty-two Magazine Covers, such as Woman's Home Companion and McCall's, between 1906 and 1920.

She also illustrated popular Children's Books, including a notable 1907 Edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Although the commercial popularity of her art declined during World War II, there was renewed interest in her Illustrations from collectors by the Late-20th-Century.
