Up in Central Park 1950

Gil Elvgren’s “Up in Central Park” is a classic example of the pin-up genre, known for its glamorous portrayal of women. Painted in 1950, this artwork features a woman in a red dress and white gloves, seated in a horse-drawn carriage. The scene is set in Central Park, New York City, with a lush green background and the iconic park lampposts. Elvgren’s signature style is evident in the idealized figure, the vibrant color palette, and the playful depiction of femininity.
