Eons ago in Cafe Society, someone posted a thread asking about the picture on the wall of the apartment on the TV show Three’s Company, showing a woman with butterfly wings. I answered that it was a cover illustration from the old New Yorker-style magazine Life (not the Time Inc. picture magazine).
Just today I found a poster reproduction of that painting. It’s titled “The Flapper” (get the pun?), and was painted by the great F.X. Leyendecker. It was on the cover of the Life issue of February 2, 1922.
I have not been able to find the old thread, so I am posting it as a new thread in case whoever asked about it still wants to know.
Thank you. I wasn’t around for the old thread, but my friends (well, at least the ones who liked the show) and I have been wondering about that for ages.
Did you just come across the poster by chance, or were you looking for that specific image?
The thread/question I’m remembering was within the past year and had to do with a painting in Roseanne’s room. Maybe bedroom, maybe kitchen, maybe den. But Roseanne. Can’t remember if the answer ever got settled on.
BTW, this thread suggests another theme: Provide the answer, let the poster(s) come up with the relevant question(s).
