J.C. Leyendecker’s 1912 advertisement for Arrow Collar shirts features two stylish men in a domestic setting. Known for his idealized depictions of masculinity, Leyendecker uses a soft, painterly style to create a romanticized portrayal of the “Arrow Collar Man” as the epitome of sophisticated style. The use of a domestic setting, with its implied comfort and refinement, reinforces the image of the shirt-wearing man as a successful and desirable individual.
